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.
