Thanks -- that works for clicking on the menu item or launcher. But I more often start apps by hitting Alt-F2 to use the 'Run Application' dialogue. There surely must be somewhere where I can set a true default for gnome-terminal, which will take effect whatever means I use to launch the app, and not rely just on command-line options?
Edit /usr/share/applications/gnome-terminal.desktop and change the Exec line to something like this:
Exec=gnome-terminal --geometry 80x40
(80x24 is the default). Once you change that, your can right-click on the gnome-terminal menu item and choose Add this launcher to panel, which will keep those settings.
