--- Comment #35 from Yotam Benshalom <[email protected]> ---
The problem indeed disappears, along with the cursor indicator, when running:
export SAL_DISABLE_CURSOR_INDICATOR=1 && /opt/libreofficedev7.4/program/soffice

In case the issue is not resolved, can this behaviour stay in place? One of my
jobs is adding diacritics to entire books, and this bug makes it almost
impossible.

FWIW, I don't really understand the reason behind the current implementation of
the cursor direction indicator. I don't need an indicator telling me whether an
existing character is rtl or not, because I can see that for myself. What I do
need (or at least would appreciate) is an indicator that would tell me whether
the character I am about to type is ltr or rtl, based on my current keyboard
input language - exactly the way it is implemented in the comment textbox I am
using right now via firefox. If I am not mistaken, this is the way ms word does
it as well.
