I can confirm the results using the steps from the report:
I've the text "foo \ bar" in the main editbox.
I copy (or just select it), and then open the "Replace" window (Search >
Replace).
When pasting in one of the two editboxes , the text is converted to "foo
\\ bar" instead of "foo \ bar"
** Changed in: gedit (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
