[[ Since I can still reproduce with current releases, on a platform
totally different from the OP, I'm updating platform and version values
in the bug. ]]

This is easy to demonstrate with the new text-reflowing: you can see
that the logical text-size is changed and text is reflowed (so the
"terminal" idea is resized), but the window size (the "GUI around a
terminal") does not change.

I'll attach two screenshots: konsole after / during resize using the
window-manager handles, and then the "text-size-terminal" changed to
80x25. You can see right after the text-size-change codes, that the text
is reflowed with the new text-size, but the graphical window size does
not change. Opening a new tab, or switching tabs, triggers a *new*
resize and reflow event, and the text-size goes back to matching the
GUI-size (e.g. it reflows back to the "size1" screenshot).

With all that said, though, it's not clear to me if resizing the **GUI**
part to match the **text** size makes sense: what about other tabs in
konsole? They would end up being resized as well, by an ANSI code
emitted in one tab! Or consider tabs with different profiles that have
different font sizes: resize to 80x25 means different things (in terms
of GUI-size, and so in terms of text-size for other tabs) in different
tabs.

I would consider closing this as "WONTFIX", because a tabbed, paned,
multi-layout multi-themed terminal widget doesn't have a good model for
"resize the GUI" based on text events.
