Comment 6 for bug 740864

I don't like this branch for a couple of reasons:
1) technically we are linking gedit to the pixmap theming engine just to hide the frame
2) removing the frame is inconsistent with the rest of our light-themes, where frames are always drawn around the scrolled window (there's in fact a frame, with a shadow-type != GTK_SHADOW_NONE)
3) the fix to this bug in not complete, as the text color is black and not white. this could potentially break not only the customization of colors in the appearance properties capplet, but also other color schemes (where black is not the color used)

just to fix this bug, we should try something like that (not tested if the text[ACTIVE] color is working fine or it could create issues):
style "gedit-notebook"
{
 base[ACTIVE] = @selected_bg_color
 text[ACTIVE] = @selected_fg_color
}

widget_class "*GeditNotebook" style "gedit-notebook"
widget_class "*GeditNotebook*Tab*" style "gedit-notebook"

I would remove this branch from the release and postpone it in SRU.
