What am I looking at?

  • A long text field with text inside it
  • When you click to enter - where you were clicking changed
  • Makes working with long text fields very frustrating over time.

In the example I'm trying to insert something at the start of that sentence.... 

  • But it keeps jumping me to somewhere else in the text.

Yikes! Yeah, that's a bug.

Its been this way for like... a year I feel like.  Just now getting to a point where I'm starting to really feel it's sting.

I posted this last year and have yet to receive any responses. I also requested feedback on this issue through a feedback form. I had a similar issue, including the text box size.
