Ok I got it!

This happens systematically when part (even a small part) of the currently open window exceeds the screen in any direction (including the bottom). Then any file you open from nautilus is opened in a new gedit window.

Only if the currently open gedit window is ENTIRELY inside the current screen does it open a new file as new tab in the existing window.

Can anybody please confirm the bug and change the status to "confirmed"? (i guess it's not good practice to confirm one's own bugs)
