CTRL+D sends EOF to the shell, indicating the end of input, so the shell
exits, which causes gnome-terminal to exit. You can verify this by
running another bash session in the terminal:

bash

then press CTRL+D. That instance of bash will exit but gnome-terminal
will remain open. Another example, and probably the most common one on
ubuntu systems is running a python interactive shell. If you type exit
it will echo:

Use exit() or Ctrl-D (i.e. EOF) to exit

I am going to mark this bug as invalid, if you feel there really is a
bug here, feel free to reopen.

** Changed in: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
