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.
