Sebastien, your comment made me laugh. Linux *is* for power users. My grandmother or parents or even sister (who is on myspace all day long) would not use Linux. Anyone using gedit is most likely a power user as well because if they were just a "dumb user" typing a paper for school or a letter to a friend, they would be using Open Office write or some email front end or website front end to enter the text. Next, SAMBA is hardly a power user thing. If you're on ANY kind of network/LAN, you are no doubt using samba or the Microsoft equivalent of it. Lastly, the damn bug is THREE years old and NO other program has this problem. This is just typical of Linux developers. They always want to claim it's a desktop replacement and how great it is over Windows or OS-X, but then refuse to fix things as it's much sexier to implement new features than work on bugs. Or my other favorite is how they throw back the "why don't YOU fix it and submit a patch".
