The thing I can confirm is that the Text is inside a TextFlow but I'm fairly unable to provide a test-case because it happens at random times - I'll try to update to the latest u40 build to see if the fix from Jim helps me.
For the time being I was able to work around the problem by adjusting the PathElements returned to be never larger then the text-elements height which too me sounds like a reasonable constraint because I can't think of a situation where the caret should ever be larger than the Text-Bounds.
