Files created with Gedit don't apply expected 002 umask.

But files ( or folders ) created with i.e. Gimp apply expected 002 umask.

A foreseeable way of setting umask system wide and/or per session is very much needed in order to administrate 17.10 machines in local network ( school, library, business, anything… ) where people share files/folders, be it through samba or nfs…

…that's not of low importance, it's a security issue.
