Hoary - gedit no longer open files in tabs by default

[Matt Galvin]

Not sure if this is the right place to ask but here goes...

In Gnome 2.8 gedit would open files in new tabs if a copy of gedit was
already running when opening the files via double clicking them in
nautilus. So if i open three files, i get one copy of gedit running
with 3 tabs, one for each file.

In Gnome 2.9.x/2.10 gedit 2.9.6 no longer does this. It opens up a new
copy of itself for every file i try to open via double clicking the
files in nautilus. So if i open three files i get three copies of
gedit running each with one file open.

Is this the new desired behavior or a bug? I am using a fresh Array 5
install with all the latest updated as of last night, US time.
