Public bug reported: I was just typing, editing a file (with a few other opened in other tabs). Suddenly Gedit started consuming a lot of cpu and after a few seconds it crashed.
Upon restart, it didn't even give me an option to restore the unsaved file from a backup, which is the worst thing. Doesn't gedit automatically save a hidden backup every very few seconds as ALL decent text editing programs do, from vim to LibreOffice?? that's unbelievable. If it does, then it "forgot" to ask me whether I wanted to restore it. I lost all the unsaved changes. Hope this report gets the relevant files attached.
