On a different computer, the behaviour I complain against doesn't
appear. It actually works as intended. I'll check again on the
offending system.
After a more thorough check of what the problem really is, I realize
that the bug title should have been something like "gedit should have
a better way to recognize files than just using the filename".
Here's my situation:
On CLI, I use some program to put some text into a certain file and
then open that file with gedit. I do this repeatedly while using the
same filename since I don't need the previous data anymore. Since
gedit thinks it's still the same file, it jumps to the same index that
it was with the old file.
Maybe this is a rare use-case, but I'd be so glad if you could fix it...
