Public bug reported:

In GNOME Terminal, opening a new tab opens the new tab using the same
working directory as the current tab.

This only works because we added a distro patch to GNOME Terminal in
2013. VTE prefers to use /etc/bashrc.d/ but Debian and Ubuntu's bash
don't support that feature currently.

Workaround
==========
You can add this line to your ~/.bashrc

source /etc/profile.d/vte-2.91.sh

This will enable this feature to work in all VTE apps: Ptyxis, GNOME
Console, etc.
