Details:

While testing some patches to other bugs I've noticed that in development
version of Octave pressing Ctrl+E to edit function under cursor doesn't do
anything.

I've used this function without problems in 4.0.0 (ubuntu octave-stable PPA,
version 4.0.0-3ubuntu2~octave~trusty3), but it no longer works at least as of
980abb267014+ (output of `hg id -i`).

I've tried to investigate what happens there, and it seems the slot
`file_editor::handle_edit_mfile_request()` isn't being called, despite having
been successfully connected in `file_editor::construct()`. The signal which
should call it (as it seems to me) is emitted in
`file_editor_tab::handle_context_menu_edit()`, after which I failed to trace
where it goes.
