Title:
  file information not shown on rollover on tab if window is maximized

Status in gedit package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:
  1. open several files in Gedit
  2. maximize the window
  3. move the cursor over each tab

  Expected behavior: every time you roll over a tab, a black rectangle
  should appear with white text with information about the file (full
  path, mime type...)

  Observed result: for the left-most tabs and while the cursor x
  position is lower than a certain point, the info box is not shown.
  Instead, a strange flickering can be observed on the top left corner
  of the screen (not even in the area where the info box is supposed to
  be shown); sometimes you may see the info box appear for a fraction of
  an instant. If you move the cursor to the right of a certain threshold
  and for subsequent tabs, it works as expected.

  
  Just another pathetic regression in f***ing-unusable 15.10.
