Title:
  gedit autoscrolls while moving text selection

Status in gedit:
  Expired
Status in gedit package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gedit

  When moving a text selection with the mouse, gedit autoscrolls so that
  the currently highlighted line is centered to the screen/client area.
  This tends to be confusing (i.e., the user needs to locate the target
  line again).  Usually happens when the highlighted line is near the
  top/bottom of the screen.  Also, there is no indication of the exact
  insertion point ---and the mouse icon is not useful at all.

  This happened in Gutsy, and still happens in Hardy-beta.
