Research direction

Start by reproducing the GLib-GIO-CRITICAL message while editing text files in xed 3.8.9. Trace the operation that leaves the GTask unfinished and identify the conditions that trigger it. Done means the sporadic terminal error is explained and no longer occurs in the affected workflow.
