[ubuntu-uk] 13.04 behaves differently...

[Gareth France]

I've taken the plunge and upgraded, mostly out of boredom I think. It 
seems rather shakey at the moment. Sound works, then it doesn't. Intel 
video needs much prodding before it's usable and today everything was 
running at half speed for a while.

However what intrigues me is that there are a number of subtle behaviour 
changes and I'm unsure if they are intentional or not. I have a bash 
script sat on my desktop, I double click it and it performs magic that I 
am too lazy to do myself. Now I have upgraded it will load in Gedit if I 
double click. Right clicking reveals no useful options and I have had to 
resort to loading a terminal to launch it. Is this by design? If so, 
what is the logic behind it?
