    A bit more fiddling..
    I don't know what role in it gnome-terminal plays but, it seems that
    PS1 gets "global" at Gnome login time and user inherits that, if set
    in  '/etc/environment;
        , if  PS1 set specifically in user "profile",
    then takes expected effect.
    If set only in '/etc/environment'
        , PS1 is read by gnome/terminal but is malformed, as not
        digested, raw - suffices to 'ssh localhost' from
    the same gnome terminal and  PS1 is set, displayed properly
        In terminal, "Run command as login shell" is ON for all my
        fiddling and makes no difference.
        
        It smells to me like a bug, I'd not presume it's intentional.
        
        thanks, L.
