This was difficult to find. You CAN set the default size of Gnome Terminal. The following instructions apply to Ubuntu 9.04, so your milage may vary:
Open /usr/share/vte/termcap/xterm:
sudo gedit /usr/share/vte/termcap/xterm
Find the line containing :co#80:it#8:li#24:\ (line 10 in Ubunto 9.04)
Replace the 80 with desired column width, and 24 with the desired row height.
Save and close all terminals.
