Public bug reported:

Open a file in gedit
swicth to some other program, and modify the file that is open in Gedit
switch back to gedit

Expected: the "file changed on disk" alert should show up, and prompt
you whether to reload the file or keep editing

Observed: that doesn't happen until you switch to another tab in gedit
and switch back to the tab where that file is open. If you don't have
several tabs open, you will NEVER be warned that the file has been
changed!!!!

This is HUGE.
