Comment(by humdinger):

 Oops. I totally misunderstood the ticket... (and I was still writing when
 you posted the above. :) )

 augiedoggie is right, either go back to only saving when the menu item is
 invoked or remove the item. Personally, I'd remove the item and have
 Terminal always open in the state it was closed.

 I also think that the menu item "Save as default" has the potential to
 confuse. "Did I not just saved my settings in the preference panel? Do I
 have to again "Save as default" to make them stick?

 If these encoding and size settings were saved with the currently used
 Terminal-settings file (that holds the fonts and colour prefs), you could
 have different settings for different profiles.

 BTW, the Encoding setting isn't saved at all. With or without using "Save
 as default".
