Bug Description
Both the actions of gedit quicklists have the same command listed.
$ cat /usr/share/
[Desktop Entry]
Name=gedit
GenericName=Text Editor
Comment=Edit text files
[Desktop Action Window]
Name=Open a New Window
Exec=gedit --new-window
OnlyShowIn=Unity;
[Desktop Action Document]
Name=Open a New Document
Exec=gedit --new-window
OnlyShowIn=Unity;
Only showing relevant parts of the .desktop file.
The command for creating a new document is actually `gedit --new-document` and not the `--new-window` that is currently in the quicklist.
This bug was probably introduced when fixing bug #938748.

action. (LP: #1027584)
