Re the VirtualBox shared folders aspect of this problem. So there are
two problems here, both stemming from gedit and Nautilus renaming open
files as part of their overwrite process:

-- the Samba filesystem doesn't support this properly

-- the VirtualBox vboxsf filesystem doesn't support this properly

#34813 only covers the Samba root cause. The vboxsf one is in the Debian bug 
(can't find an Ubuntu equivalent):
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=594162

I've raised a VirtualBox bug to cover this issue:
http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/9203

So, ideally, we should have a separate Ubuntu bug for this other root
cause (vboxsf doesn't support open file overwrite). What's the normal
procedure for things like this? Does someone want me to create this bug
(or an admin do so themselves)?? Or can one link to the Debian bug as
another bug this is a duplicate of (I think not)? Let me know and I'm
happy to help....
