Bug#468107: gedit: ignores .ssh/config when opening files

Package: gedit
Version: 2.20.4-1
Severity: normal


apparently some disagreement over SSH urls between nautilus and gedit 
produces recent files that can't be reopened by gedit.

to reproduce:
put settings in ~/.ssh/config aliasing a host name or overiding the default
username etc then open that server using nautilus and then open a file in
gedit, then close the file and attempt to reopen it using the entry in the
file menu.

example .ssh/config:
host thatbox
hostname thatbox.example.com
user someone_else

the remote SSH server in my case is configured to only use publickey
authentication (not password interactive)
