Before the bufferSet api, here is how jEdit was doing :

if you have 2 or more buffers, pressing ctrl+N always create a new empty
buffer
if you have 1 buffer, if it is clean and unnamed, it was closed and
immediately recreated
I think there is a reason for that : if you press ctrl+N in another
directory it can be a wanted behavior to open a new untitled buffer in that
directory to replace the previous one.

And that's right that pressing ctrl+N when we have only one untitled clean
buffer should not change it's number, I will open a new bug in the tracker
for that

I disagree.  Ctrl-N should always make a new buffer.  I don't want to hunt
in a list for the empty one, if there is one.  I'm okay with there being
more than one empty, untitled buffer.

if you have an untitled buffer that is not dirty, it must be empty, which
means, there is already a new buffer.
perhaps ctrl-N should do nothing under such a situation?

Thanks for the fix!

The handling of untitled buffers is still a little strange (probably not
bufferSets related issue), though. 

When you close all buffers and have only the default "Untitled-1" buffer
opened, then the C+n changes the name of the buffer to "Untitled-2" (3, 4,
...), but in the buffer list is visible only the last one.

When you save or make the "Untitled-1" buffer dirty, then the New file
action always creates new buffer, which also appears in the buffer list.

Hi, it is fixed in the trunk now, thanks for testing the bufferSet feature
