With the following entries I don't see any problem for gedit and kate on an 
openSuSE Tumbleweed system.

    ("gedit" . "gedit --wait +%(line)s:%(column)s %(file)s")
    ("kate" . "kate -b -l%(line)s -c%(column)s %(file)s")

'LYEDITOR=gedit mupdf test.pdf' and 'LYEDITOR=kate mupdf test.pdf' both work as 
expected (the first click
opens the editor, subsequent clicks change the cursor location):

Software versions: lilypond master, gedit 3.28.1, kate 18.04.1, mupdf 1.12, 
xdg-open 1.1.3

Every system/pdf viewer has to be installed in a way that textedit links are 
supported.
If you e.g. use kde plasma 5 / okular  you have to create a file 
/usr/share/kservices5/textedit.protocol ...
