Bug Description

To move windows between workspaces, right-clicking the window title bar gives a menu that allows selecting which workspace to move the window to.

gedit no longer shows this option when right-clicking the window title bar.

It also no longer allows minimizing the window from the window title bar.

That's more of a GTK issue, though you could argue it's a gedit one for using GtkHeaderBar/CSD...

This bug was fixed in the package gedit - 3.18.3-0ubuntu3

---------------
gedit (3.18.3-0ubuntu3) xenial; urgency=medium

  * debian/patches/unity_no_csd.patch:
    don't use GtkHeaderBar decorations under Unity, they still create
    integration issues and are too differents. That should fixes those issues
    - having duplicated decorations (lp: #1542129)
    - right click on decorations not providing common actions like move to
      workspace (lp: #1527592)
    - using local menus loose gedit ones (lp: #1518516)
