User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060614 Firefox/1.5.0.4

Whenever I have a Terminal window snaped to the bottom of my desktop and I open a second tab, Terminal resizes its window to add the 2 tabs under the window decorations, which puts the last line of output off screen.  I would prefer that Terminal simply resized it's output area (like firefox) rather than the entire window.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start up Terminal and move it to the bottom of your desktop.
2. Run a command that takes up the entire terminal: $ man man
3. Open a new tab
4. Go back to the first tab.

Actual Results:  
The last line is off screen now.  And the window needs to be moved up so that the last line is visable again.

Expected Results:  
The window is not resized.  Therefore, the user does not need to do anything to it.
