But I'm going to give Kubuntu and Linux Mint a try, because even though I
quite like unity this and other basic usability and functionality problems
(e.g. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=661837
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/922095 ) are beginning
to really annoy me :(

Title:
  Gedit not single instance when started from unity

Status in Unity:
  Fix Released
Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gedit

  Normally, gedit is a single instance application, meaning that it is
  started only once, and subsequent invocations are merged into the
  already running instance.

  When starting gedit from unity (either via dash, or via Alt+F2) and
  later from somewhere else (I tested opening a file in nautilus,
  opening a file from the archive manager, and running from the command
  line), gedit is started a second time.
