Right clicking a file in Nautilus and choosing "Open with Text Editor"
always uses gedit. This should really be running the gnome-text-editor
alternative, so that it can be changed.

It can be changed. Right click on the text file go to "Properties" then
"Open With" and select gnome-text-editor. Or were you arguing that
gnome-text-editor should be the out-of-the-box default? If so I'd file a
wishlist bug stating that.

Cheers,

Stewart
