At the time the question was asked, this was not possible in Gnome Terminal. However, a fix was committed in late 2013. This change didn't make it into Ubuntu 14.04, but it should be part of Ubuntu 14.10.
According to the issue on Launchpad, you can have this feature today by enabling the Gnome-team PPA. You can activate the Gnome-team Staging PPA (staging required to get latest version) by doing the following
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-staging
Update your sources
sudo apt-get update
Re-install gnome-terminal to get latest version
sudo apt-get install gnome-terminal
Check so you have version 3.13 or later (as of 10 September, should be 3.13.1)
$ gnome-terminal --version
GNOME Terminal 3.12.1
