Comment 8 for bug 747761

@Doug, NO, it occurs also when the window extends off the right or left or top of the screen, not only bottom, at least hear.

Additionally, it also systematically happens when there is an existing EMPTY gedit window completely within the screen with no files already open.

Still an issue in Ubuntu 11.10

I don't know whether the desktop system or gedit itself is at fault, but I haven't observed it on other apps. I tried with Google Chrome (opening html files from disk) and it behaves as expected. So i guess it is gedit.
