Summary: Insertion point frequently not visible → Insertion point [cursor] frequently not visible in mail compose
WFM with Build 2003101804 and XP. I have noticed the cursor being invisible periodically with textboxes throughout the mozilla suite. Could be related
Also happens when entering addresses, I noticed today. Sometimes after you hit the CR to get to the next address line, there is no cursor displayed.
I have this problem reproduceable 100% on build 2004091906. If I tab though the address and subject fields and get to the text input window cursor never appears. OS is WinXP Pro/SP1. This was the case with earlier builds after 1.8a3.

Seems fixed in Thunderbird 1.5b1. Don't know about Mozilla Suite, but I don't use it anymore.
