[snip] Finally a way to reproduce: enter a directory that contains items but few enough so that there will be empty room below the files/directories list. Now click with left mouse button just below the item at bottom of list, like if you where aiming at another item that is not there (IOW not way below, just below the last file). Selection cursor will disappear. May or may not be back if you press up/down arrows. Back if you click a filename. If the cursor vanishes and you press the down arrow for a while, the whole terminal will scroll and display garbage, which let think that the selection cursor is hidden but still following up/down and follow an invisible list.
