Public bug reported:
When I run the command "gksu gedit myfile.txt" gedit opens up with a 2nd
tab that says "Untitled Document 1" with a spinning wheel next to the
"Untitled Document 1" text. If I switch to this tab, I cannot save the
apparent new file, there is no cursor at the beginning, and I cannot
type into it. I can close it easily however, but it is annoying to have
this come up every time I want to use gksu gedit. This does NOT happen
if I use "sudo gedit myfile.txt".
