Characters are lost when resizing konsole window

This error is in every version of konsole I've tried. The last one is kde 3.2rc1.

How to reproduce:
1. Start "konsole" app
2. execute any command with a considerable width output (i.e. $ gcc -v or $ uname -a)
Characters are aranged the way they should. If there are large lines (without a "\n" or "newline"), then they're arranged in various lines so that all of the characters appear and none is hidden out of the window border.

3. Resize the window width so that the window have a lesser area and some of the characters that were the output of the executed command became hidden.

4. Resize the window width to a bigger value. The characters that were hidden before have disappeared!

Expected Behaviour:


1. Start "konsole" app
2. execute any command with a considerable width output (i.e. $ gcc -v or $ uname -a)
Characters are aranged the way they should. If there are large lines (without a "\n" or "newline"), then they're arranged in various lines so that all of the characters appear and none is hidden out of the window border.

3. Resize the window width so that the window have a lesser area and some of the characters that were the output of the executed command became hidden.

4. Resize the window width to a bigger value. The characters that were hidden before appear  just as they were before.

Useful Information:

When writting this bug, I've tried other terminals to see what's therir behaviour, and I've found that the only one that behaves the way I've described as good is the gnome-terminal. I think it's a good thinkto try it and see what I mean.
