This works just fine for me with bash too, with the default profile, no
less.  Not sure why it hates you.  But pretty please, don't change
gnome-terminal to do things it shouldn't.

In fact, I think I'll just wontfix the gnome-terminal bug before anyone
gets any clever ideas.

Title:
  Append remote hostname to gnome-terminal title by default

Bug description:
  The window matching in 14.04 is perfect for finding windows you think
  you've lost. Sysadmins usually use a bunch of terminals, it would be
  cool if Super-W then typing in a remote hostname would Just Work with
  Unity's spread and searching.

  To do this we need to set gnome-terminal's title when a person ssh'es
  to a machine to have something like "jorge at remotehost" in the title.
  This would allow the spread to search for those windows.
