[gedit-list] wishlist wish: gzipped text

[Tatu Portin <axel86 mbnet fi>]

I would request that gedit should be able to open and save gzipped 
text. Adding this functionality is trivial.

Gedit could use gzip and gunzip commands of the underlaying system.

Abstraction from this position would be general open/save processors. 
That, when a file is opened, it is first processed and the result is 
put into a temporary file that is passed to gedit. Then, when saving a 
file, file is first saved to temporary file and then processed, and 
processed file is used to replace the original target.

This kind of functionality is useful when integrated to an app itself, 
because only that way the use of terminal can be avoided. Switching 
between apps (e.g. terminal & gedit) slows working, and thus should be 
avoided. The functionality could be used as a part of gnome more 
generally, but gedit would be practical show- or test case.
