Steps to reproduce
Ensure that the "Remove trailing white-space from rectangular selection" option is un-checked. Select some text from the terminal window that includes trailing white space, then paste the contents into another application eg notepad. The content pasted in will have its trailing white space trimmed off, contrary to the option setting.
Expected Behavior
When the option is off, trailing white space should not be truncated.
Actual Behavior
Traiing white-space truncation occuring despite the option setting being off.
Just to check that the bug is not simply a negation logic error, I turned it on and repeated the opration, but I found that the content was still be trailing white-space truncated, so it looks like the option is simply ignored.
