One of the most frequent complaints about our launching behaviour is how we handle terminals. Among all MDI applications, the terminal is the one that is most likely to have lots of semi-independent windows opened at the same time, and spawning new windows is much more common. More so, if it does not support tabs. Therefore, we special case terminal launchers to always create a new window. It is an application that most non-technical users will not use, so chances of them being confused by any special behaviour is expected to be low. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=695010
