I dug into the code to try and fix this, but it's a lot more complex than it looks. If anyone wants to start digging, look at `gedit- tab.c:248` - that's the first catch conditional. Also look at the function getting called if that conditional passes - there's a similar catch conditional in there.
The main problem is that auto-save pulls in the file object, which doesn't exist if the document is unsaved. Autosave would actually have to save the file to some special "temporary" directory.
