Public bug reported:

At times (I have not found the trigger to reproduce it at will), one
terminal window out of many will refuse to receive complex input
sequences (such as the French composite accented character "ê" (which is
typed with "^ + e" on a french keyboard), or IBus/Anthy Japanese input),
and only these characters will be redirected to another terminal window.

This means that for two terminals, typing in terminal 1 : "Verbe être" results 
in this :
Terminal 1 : "Verbe tre"
Terminal 2 : "ê"

When this happens, the following workarounds work to put things in order :
- close the affected terminal window
- spawn a new one and close it

I am not sure whether this is an IBus problem, or a Gnome Terminal
problem at its core.
