Actually, I don't think this is a regression in gnome-terminal since
running jed in an xterm exhibits the same problem.

Bug description:
I've just noticed this in recent Raring updates: gnome-terminal is now
eating control-space keystrikes (C-space).
This is a pretty important keybinding when running various editors
such as emacs -nw or jed in a terminal window. I've looked through
the keyboard shortcuts and can find no bindings to C-space. Hitting
C-space seems to have no effect, but it is also not passed through to
the underlying program (e.g. jed or emacs -nw). It just gets lost
afaict. C-space definitely still works in other desktop apps such as
emacs24. This also definitely worked in Quantal and in Raring until a
few days (?) ago. I'll have to look through recent gnome-terminal
changes to see if I can pinpoint the problem.
This is a fairly serious regression as it blocks important
functionality.
