How should I mark this bug? Solved? 
But something is happened (indeed someone else had the same problem) ...

I think I saw this issue too at some point, but it kind of looked like it might actually be something related to display rendering. I don't recall the details what happened, but scrolling worked sporadically, I needed to switch tabs to have the edit view updated, and the typed text eventually was inserted, but did just not appear, as the edit area was not redrawn.

I had it not in the last days, but I am not sure it does really no longer happen, it can be an issue in all levels of the stack.

Can no longer reproduce that. Could you try with the latest updates of the whole system installed?
