This is an old bug in the appmenu indicator. gedit gives an appmenu via
GMenu but also has oldschool GtkMenu menus for the menubar. Unity can't
deal with both of these at the same time.

App menus aren't shown in the panel if the app is also exporting menus via
dbusmenu

Title:
gedit 3.7 doesn't display application menu
Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Starting with version 3.7.3, gedit has an application menu with menu
items such as New Window, Preferences, About and Quit. Unfortunately
this menu does not display under Unity, which makes gedit nearly
unusable. You can see this if you install gedit 3.7 on Raring from
the GNOME 3 PPA (https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3),
or build it yourself on Raring (you'll need components from the GNOME
3 PPA in order to do so).
Unity *does* display the application menu in other applications
including Nautilus and Epiphany. Perhaps it's failing to display the
menu in gedit because gedit has other top-level menus as well (unlike
those other applications). Or perhaps there's a deeper explanation.
Also see some discussion (but no fix) at
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=696425 .
