3207	paste adds extra characters on Gnome Terminal	dparsons		"This ticket follows up Debian bug #734571 [1].  

Paste in mc is failing on Gnome Terminal by adding extra characters at front and
back of the desired string. e.g. copying (highlighting) the ""/..""
string from the mc list of files and directories gets pasted (middle
mouse button or Ctrl-Shift-V) as ""{{{^[[200~/..^[[201~}}}"" 

The failure does not happen immediately. As far as I can tell it
occurs after maximising the window and toggling between the file
display and the plain command line using Ctrl-o.  Both those steps
seem to be necessary to reproduce the bug. After that, all pastes within the terminal  fail in this way.  

I experience the bug running mc in Gnome Terminal
(multiple versions, currently Gnome 3.12).  Apparently only Gnome Terminal is affected, not other terminals.

The bug seems to have been triggered by Changeset c55b48 [2], created for MC ticket #2661 [3] (thank you to Yury V. Zaytsev for finding that).  When I revert that commit from current git, the bug disappears.

Is it a bug in Gnome Terminal or should a fix be applied in mc on top of commit c55b48?
