Public bug reported: The very useful autosave feature that runs every five minutes locks up the editor when it runs, and when it happens, any keystrokes typed during the interval are lost.
Such that when typing the following (for example) : abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz If autosave runs during that interval, here is an example of what ends up being processed : abcdefghpqrstuvwxyz As is obvious, keystrokes for "ijklmno" are lost. This happens every time. I am not sure if this is specific to gedit, or to the input framework I am using (IBus, and at times Anthy for Japanese input) This is quite annoying as it forces me to re-read absolutely everything I typed to make sure gedit did not miss anything.
