[Bug 48097] gedit does not get focus when opening more than one document

[Bernat Tallaferro]

Public bug reported:

I already saw this behaviour during the dapper development phase, but it
somehow got fixed with some updates. Now, some days before the dapper
release, I've noticed it again.

Basically, after having open a document, opening a new one will cause
gedit to remain in the background, whereas it would be expected that
gedit gets the focus and is brought to the foreground.

Steps to reproduce:

1.- Open a Nautilus window.

2.- In this window, browse a folder that contains text documents.

3.- Click on a text document. The document will be opened in gedit,
which will appear on the foreground.

4.- Go back to the Nautilus window and click on a second document. The
document will be open in gedit, but this time in will remain in the
background, while the window list bar is flashing.

Expected: gedit opens the second document and gets focus (i.e. it
appears in the foreground).

** Affects: gedit (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed
