Bug Description
$ gedit # opens untitled document
$ gedit /path/to/file # opens file
$ sudo gedit /path/to/file # opens file
$ gksu gedit /path/to/file # opens file & untitled document
$ gksudo gedit /path/to/file # opens file & untitled document
The "Untitled Document" should only be opened when no file is provided, according to `man gedit`.
Additionally, when "Untitled Document" is opened unexpectedly via gksu[do], its tab icon is shown as the rotating "loading" icon. Occasionally the icon will stop "spinning", when the tab is focused/un-focused it will continue spinning, until it freezes again. On the other had, when I expect "Untitled Document" to be opened (e.g. `gedit`), its tab icon is the proper "plain-text" icon.
