Gedit is not a massive application. It's not a massive undertaking to relearn where things are.
If vim changed all its keybindings, now that would be something. Going to a menu conveniently located in the window header bar is not unreasonably hard to do.
What gnome does right: GNOME 2 What gnome does wrong: GNOME 3
Frankly, I found GNOME 2 to be pretty awful too, due to the GNOME HIG ("No" comes before "Yes" on a dialog box? Seriously?). I don't think GNOME has gotten anything right since GNOME 1.
It's the same on Mac. Windows does it the opposite way. The idea is that the default "good" choice should always be in a easy to find position, and the lower right corner is much easier to find than the first from the left of a set of widgets.
What they did to gedit is really a disaster. One day I needed to launch some simple GTK+ app to check something I changed in configuration, so just typed "gedit" into console, saw a window and thought that client side decorations has broke. It took me a while to notice that what I saw was actually intended. UX of this app is now awful, and it's a massive downgrade, as it used to be just fine.
Why is it a downgrade? That it changed doesn't make it a downgrade by itself. You can still do the same things that you could before. Just because the menu bar and the tool bar isn't there anymore doesn't mean that the features are gone, they are still there and you may have to do some relearning. You learn a tool once, and use it many times. It's of course unfortunate that the old design wasn't perfect; maybe the new one isn't either, but the idea is that in the long run it will be and at some point you just have to change what is there even though what you had technically wasn't broken.
Don't conflate the GNOME and GNOME-derived desktop environments with Linux in general. A great deal of Linux users think that GNOME and GNOME-derived desktop environments are utter shit. They consider the GTK+ toolkit, GNOME, and the related software to be fucking disasters. No KDE developer or user would consider a text editor with a monstrosity of a UI like gedit's to be acceptable, for example.

So i understand from this that o don't need to rush & patch my web servers who all have Trusted certs. Right ?
You may want to rush if your web server validates client certificates? That is, does any of your users have to present a certificate to the web server instead of just the opposite way around?
Given the awfully broad "rape" law in Sweden, I don't mind.
The bizarre thing is that without the ongoing investigation it would probably be easier for Assange to get asylum in Sweden. Sweden expressly forbids ministers of government from having any direct involvement over administrative authorities. If he applied his case would in theory be handled under the exact same process as everyone else regardless the political situation. The Swedish prime minister would not be able to accept or reject anything, it would only be up to the responsible administrative authority to decide based only on current legislation.
