Not easy to decide what do here, we don't have real datas to determine if the "recently used" is useful for most users or not. Reading through the upstream bug comments and the user feedback over recent cycles it feels like "cwd" would be a better default though for our users/Unity though, +1 from me to override the default.
I don't know how we could change GTK2 without a patch to change the default, but if other flavors want the same behaviour adding a patch should be no issue -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959505 Title: gedit wants to save in "recently used" by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gtk/+bug/959505/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
