Title:
  gedit crashes when opening files by dragging file icon over gedit
  application

Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gedit

  Version of Ububtu: 9.10
  Gedit Version: 2.28.0-0ubuntu2

  I quite often open files by dragging them over the top of an open
  application. This can be of great use when opening multiple files in
  multiple directories. Normally the file would open with no problems.
  In this case, I had opened about three previous XML files, and upon
  opening the new one, it showed a blank content (as if the file had no
  content), and then gedit crashed.

  The files were being opened from a Samba share, mounted using
  smb://<location> (rather than in fstab).

  I believe the connection to the Samba file system may have been
  dropped (as this happens with this specific file system on occasion).
