I'll bring a conservative point of view forward: binding inclusion 
aside, does this make gedit any faster? Does it make it slower? Slower 
is not acceptable, as gedit has been feeling slower and slower every 
release.

Maybe it's time for a gedit-lite that bears much more resemblance to 
Windows notepad than where gedit is going.
