Placing the cursor at the end of the text is common behavior in all apps. So I
agree with the NOTABUG conclusion.

Btw, your workflow sounds very much like direct formatting and you definitely
should try to get familiar with styles. While its a bit uncomfy at the
beginning it will save you hours of work later. And the best, applying/changing
styles doesn't move the cursor :-)

I don't find blinking cursor distracting at all. I believe that cursor must be
highly visible at all times and I would consider it to be a bug if it stops
being so at any time for any reason. What I find inconvenient and annoying is
that the next cursor movement after 'select all' causes the document to jump
many pages from where I was with no easy way to go back. I also find it strange
and illogical that cursor may go beyond the visible region of the document at
any time and cause such unpredictable behaviour.

In my opinion, I don't think this is a bug. I can understand the perspective of
expecting the cursor to stay in the same place after pressing CTRL+A, but I can
also see how the cursor (programmatically) needs to select all the text and why
it ends up at the very end of the document. (The good thing about this is that
after pressing CTRL+A, the vertical scrollbar doesn't automatically go to the
end of the document.)

What I did notice was that the bar (i.e., |) still blinks after pressing CTRL+A
at the end of the selected text. If the blinking cursor is too distracting to
the user, then perhaps one option could be to not show the cursor when
selecting the entire document.

Let's design team decide, if it is a bug or not.
