gedit does not need a full gnome desktop. The only dependencies are gtk
+, glib and GConf (well, and gtksourceview, but can be almost considered
a part of gedit itself). The only problem I see with Hardy is that it
does not ship a version of gtk and glib new enough, but you can easily
install them in a separate prefix.
