snippets delete selected text with non-ascii characters

[Michal Rudolf]

$GEDIT_SELECTED_TEXT variable used in snippets does not work correctly for non-ascii characters.
For example, the standard LaTeX macro:

{\\${1:bf} $GEDIT_SELECTED_TEXT}

works correctly for 'alpha' text, giving:
{\bf alpha}

but for any utf-8 sequence, like 'głąb' deletes the selected text, producing
{\bf }

if gedit is run from the terminal, the following message appears:
Token class not supported: environment

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

Can't reproduce in gedit 3.3.3, is this still an issue?
