Draft:
Bug 1929282 - Making a large selection causes crash of all gnome-terminal instances https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1929282
When making very large selections in GNOME Terminal, it can crash resulting in the loss of all Terminal instances. Upstream's current workaround is to limit select-all to visible text. Fedora is reverting that workaround, so it's possible very large selections will result in a crash.
