Thanks for reporting it on gitlab!
1. That's the gedit design, the preference dialog changes the default
settings, the menu at the bottom is for the current view/document. I
think the idea is that you go to preference not often and set defaults
there, where the bottom menu is a quick access for temporary changes
2. We call 'upstream' the people writting the software. The Gedit
project is written by GNOME people and they are the one working on the
code, releasing new versions, etc. Ubuntu does distribute their software
(the example might be easier to understand if you think about chrome or
firefox, we include those software but we are not the ones written
them). The Ubuntu team does spend time working on issues and contribute
to fixing problems but the people knowing the code and design of the
project the best remain 'upstream'
