Public bug reported:

I have always set umask at ~/.profile and gnome-session would source
this. But in Zesty, this isn't happening, and I can find no way to set a
umask default of my choosing for the gnome-session.

Creating a document using gedit always produces the default
(unchangeable) permission represented by umask 022.

If I adjust umask at ~/.bashrc, creating a document in nano or vi works
to get a different umask. But Ubuntu users should be able to adjust
umask for GTK3 apps (like gedit) as well.

If there is a new way to set ~/.profile variables, the documentation
needs to be updated to reflect this so people know how to set them.
