No, it's not a table issue. The problem is that the cursor is out of range when 
not actually on an input character. With it being out of range, there's no 
logical place to put it. Perhaps, when this happens, the cursor should be 
disabled. Is there really a need to support the placement of an out of range 
cursor?
