Public bug reported:

When launched from a terminal the widely used text editor gvim displays
lots WARNING and CRITICAL messages such as:

** (gvim:3608): WARNING **: (../../../lib/unity-gtk-menu-
shell.c:176):unity_gtk_menu_shell_show_item: code should not be reached

** (gvim:3608): CRITICAL **: unity_gtk_menu_shell_handle_item_notify:
assertion 'UNITY_GTK_IS_MENU_SHELL (shell)' failed

This did not happen in 15.04. It is a most embarrassing bug. Gvim is an
essential tool for many users.

I am using Ubuntu 15.10 Beta 2.

I expected to be able to use Gvim. Now Gvim pollutes the terminal with
scary messages, and disturbs the messages shown by other programs
running in the terminal.
