Public bug reported:

$ gedit  # opens untitled document
$ gedit /path/to/file  # opens file
$ sudo gedit /path/to/file  # opens file
$ gksu gedit /path/to/file  # opens file & untitled document
$ gksudo gedit /path/to/file  # opens file & untitled document

The "Untitled Document" should only be opened when no file is provided,
according to `man gedit`.

Additionally, when "Untitled Document" is opened unexpectedly via
gksu[do], its tab icon is shown as the rotating "loading" icon.
Occasionally the icon will stop "spinning", when the tab is focused/un-
focused it will continue spinning, until it freezes again. On the other
had, when I expect "Untitled Document" to be opened (e.g. `gedit`), its
tab icon is the proper "plain-text" icon.
