Session-Saver Plugin Missing from gedit-plugins

[Lonnie Lee Best]

I open a lot of tabs in gedit, so saving each one of them is cumbersome if I need to reboot or want to continue a project the next day.

The session-saver plugin addresses this need, but no longer seems to be included in the gedit-plugins package in Ubuntu 14.04.

How can we get that added back?

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Does anyone know why this plug-in was removed, or how we can get it back into the gedit plug-in's package?

There is a newer version of the plugin at https://github.com/sphax3d/gedit-sessionsaver
It doesn't seem stabile at the time of writing (current version needs to be patched according to Issue Tracker comments).

As a work-around I'm using this program:
sudo apt-get install geany

It automatically remembers my sessions without the addition of hard-to-find packages/plugins.
