Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/36122

Affects: gedit (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
The following procedure hangs on logout:

- Open GEdit and modify the text ( don't save ). 
- Minimize GEdit
- Log out the user


GEdit will defer the logout presenting the 'Save' Dialog. This dialog is not presented since the application is minized. Clicking on the panel to bring GEdit up does not work since the panel is disabled!

It is possible to bring up GEdit with <Alt>+<TAB> and confirm the dialog. 

Note: the original reporter indicated the bug was in package 'gnome-panel2'; however, that package was not published in Ubuntu.
