Bug Description

If I right-click a file in Thunar, open it in Sublime Text 3, and move the mouse cursor back to Thunar, the cursor continues to spin like it's doing some kind of work even though the file is already open. The spinning continues for a minute or so. This only happens if a file was already open in Sublime Text (the new file is opened in the same Sublime window).

This doesn't cause any other issues as far as I can tell (the file opens successfully), it's just mildly annoying.
