Title:
  opening more than one file in gedit causes  cursor to  spin for a
  period of time

Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gedit

  When opening additional files in gedit the cursor will spin on for some time. This occurs because of this line in gedit.desktop
  StartupNotify=true

  Not sure there is any use of this .desktop option anymore, certainly
  not in unity

  TEST CASE:
  1. Open nautilus (Files launcher)
  2. Double-click on a test file to open gedit
  3. Move the pointer outside of the edit area of gedit

  Result:
  the 'hourglass' pointer is displayed.
