Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gedit

After upgrading to 11.04, I noticed that if gedit is present in the
"Startup Applications" list, the gedit instance that opens on login is
no longer used when a text file is opened from nautilus. I don't have
any details about SIMILAR use cases, since mine is kind of an edge case,
but here are the reproduction steps:

1. Using non-Unity GNOME...
2. Put gedit into the startup applications list (System -> Preferences -> 
Startup Applications)
3. Put a nautilus sftp session into the startup applications list (path: 
nautilus sftp://...)   [This may or may not be necessary]
4. Reboot/Re-login
5. Gedit and Nautilus should open up. Using the Nautilus window, open a text 
file (.php, in my case)
6. Ubuntu should open up a new gedit window, and open the file there, instead 
of using the already opened session.

Expected behaviour:
Ubuntu should open the text file in the currently open gedit session.
