But in Zesty, this isn't happening, and I can find no way to set a umask default of my choosing for the gnome-session. Creating a document using gedit always produces the default (unchangeable) permission represented by umask 022. If I adjust umask at ~/.bashrc, creating a document in nano or vi works to get a different umask. But Ubuntu users should be able to adjust umask for GTK3 apps (like gedit) as well. If there is a new way to set ~/.profile variables, the documentation needs to be updated to reflect this so people know how to set them.
