Bug Description
The gedit window fails to appear when I start gedit on my first try. It does appear on my second try. This is true when starting from the launcher, opening a document from a folder, or opening a file using the terminal. I can see gedit did started the first time; the process is running.
If I start gedit using --standalone it does work the first time. This implies that default behaviour is to start gedit in the background. The file is ignored when gedit starts in the background, so a second call is needed to load the document.

Thanks for your report.
I can confirm this behavior and think bug 808918 is a duplicate. I'm setting to confirmed and targeting for Oneiric because gedit is a core application.
