Now typing C-f makes the cursor vanish. Is this supposed to happen? Of course not -- the cursor should never disappear like that. So this is a real bug. Can someone please DTRT and ack?

When a line of text ends in the column just before the right fringe, then placing the cursor after the last character in the line displays it in the fringe, as usual. 3. With auto-fill mode disabled, now typing SPC makes continuation arrows appear in both fringes, as usual. 4. Now evaluate the following sexp: (put-text-property (1- (point)) (point) 'display "x\n"). 5. Now the continuation arrows still appear, `x' appears after the left continuation arrow, below the original line of text, and the cursor appears below `x'. 6. Now typing C-b makes the cursor appear on top of `x', and typing C-b again then makes the cursor appear on top of the last character of the original line of text, just before the right continuation arrow. 7. Now typing C-f makes the cursor vanish. Is this supposed to happen? (Typing C-f again makes the cursor appears below `x'.) (When I do the above with my initializations and customizations, the cursor also vanishes after the first C-b in step 6. I haven't yet tried to find out what causes this difference from the behavior with -Q.)
