Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 2.12.0-2
Severity: wishlist
sometimes it is desirable to copy text from the shell with newlines
replaced by spaces (paragraphs and writtings). this request is for that
option to be added to xfce terminal. thanks for the hard work.

It is documented in the help, but I agree that it would be great if it
was easier to find directly in the dialog. Maybe you can file a feature
request for it upstream if you can figure out a good design?
