** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ Gedit crashes when it is closed while a file is being loaded or just after 
the file has been loaded.
+ 
+ The bug is a regression in Disco: in Cosmic Gedit is built using
+ autotools while in Disco we use meson. During the port to meson upstream
+ forgot to port a build option (in particular 'enable-gvfs-metadata',
+ enabled by default). Without this option a broken - and untested - code
+ path is activated.
+ 
+ To fix thisd bug we should reintroduce the 'enable-gvfs-metadata'
+ option.
+ 
+ [Test case]
+ 1. Create a big text file
+ 2. Open gedit
+ 3. Close the window while the file is still being loaded
+ 
+ Also check there are no more reports in e.u.c.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ The change affects the way gedit stores the file metadata. Try for example
+ 1. open a file
+ 2. focus a random line
+ 3. close the file
+ 4. re-open the file
+ 5. make sure the random line that you focused in point 2. is focused
+
