I used the following steps to reproduce the issue (as outlined in the upstream 
bug report):
  1. Start a project and begin a new window.
  2. Add a checkbutton.
  3. Modify the text of the "Label:" field for the checkbutton, starting in the 
middle of the existing text.
  4. Witness the cursor jumps to the right after each key stroke

Testing with glade-3 version 3.4.2-0ubuntu2 I was able to reproduce the
issue.  Started typing in the middle of the existing text of the
"Label:" field for the checkbutton.  The cursor jumps to the end of the
text box after each key stroke.

Testing with glade-3 version 3.4.5-0ubuntu1 from hardy-proposed.  This
issue is fixed.

I'd however like to make a note that it appears the actual package that
is responsible for this fix is really libgladeui-1-7 version
3.4.5-0ubuntu1.  glade-3 has a dependency on libgladeui-1-7 being
installed but it is not strict on which version of libgladeui-1-7 needs
to be installed.  As a result it could be that glade-3 version
3.4.2-0ubuntu2 was installed which also had installed libgladeui-1-7
version 3.4.2-0ubuntu2.  If you then pulled in updates from hardy-
proposed and installed glade-3 version 3.4.5-0ubuntu1, libgladeui-1-7
isn't automatically updated to the necessary version 3.4.5-0ubuntu1 and
the bug here will still exist.  I even tested keeping the older glade-3
version 3.4.2-0ubuntu2 installed and updated libgladeui-1-7 to version
3.4.5-0ubuntu1 and indeed the bug was resolved.  I hope that makes
sense.
