Can everyone confirm that this only happens when using alt-f2, and *not*
when using the normal dash (ie. hit <super> and type 'gedit'). That's
the behavior I am seeing here at least.

Title:
  gedit fails to start on first try, but does on the second

Bug description:
  The gedit window fails to appear when I start gedit on my first try.
  It does appear on my second try. This is true when starting from the
  launcher, opening a document from a folder, or opening a file using
  the terminal. I can see gedit did started the first time; the process
  is running.

  If I start gedit using --standalone it does work the first time. This
  implies that default behaviour is to start gedit in the background.
  The file is ignored when gedit starts in the background, so a second
  call is needed to load the document.
