while browsing in caret mode, if initiate find as you type to find text, the caret disappears. not sure if this is another variation (same cause) as bug 169297. it's not exactly the same since window switching isn't involved here. tested witb 2003.04.15 comm bits. 1. turn caret browsing mode on (hit F7). 2. go to http://bugzilla.org/ 3. mouseclick to place the caret just to the left of "What's all this..." 4. hit / to manually start text mode of FAYT. 5. start entering some non-linked text in the first paragraph, eg, "sys" (without quotes). 6. after "sys" is highlighted, hit any of the arrow keys to move the caret. results: highlighting goes away (expected), but so does the caret (not expected). workaround: if i hit arrow keys enough, eventually i'll reach some linked text, at which point the caret reappears.

Keep caret enable/disable as prefs' setting after current find stopped.
