[Bug 890203] [NEW] when using gedit to edit a file from dolphin, gedit always open an additional "untitled document"

 

Public bug reported:

With Kubuntu (Oneiric), if you right click a text file in the dolphin
file browser and select "Open With"->"gedit", a new gedit window comes
up with the selected file opened but also a second tab is created with
"untitled document".

When closing the editor, gedit always asks if you want to save the
redundant file - which is really annoying.

Starting gedit from the command line or from Nautilus does not exhibit
this problem.
