The time is long overdue. The last two bug clusters were busted inside a
couple days. I now present all of you with a batch of mostly easy to fix,
yet really annoying bugs. All of them have to do with improper placement
of the cursor, or leftover cursor dirt. It is quite possible that all six
of these happen in the same general area of the code. Even if not all of
them do, most of them will.

If you have wanted to get involved, and were not sure how to start, here's
a great opportunity. This should be relatively localized. Don't everybody
raise their hands at once!

215 Med ALL PageUp and PageDown key do not move insertion point
360 Med ALL Multiple cursors are drawn when switching between multiple
views
406 Low ALL Insertion point is at the wrong location when using right
arrow after shift-left arrow at EOD
411 Med ALL Multiple cursors appear on page-up
432 Low ALL Vertical cursor size is incorrect on font size boundaries
577 Med ALL Cursor dirt is left if right or left arrow is used when
document is forced to autoscroll
