Description ahmed1elsawy 2020-01-23 04:00:25 UTC 
SUMMARY
Using multibyte characters makes the display irrelevant

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. type "echo اختبار" in konsole
2. notice the difference between the cursor real position and its displayed position
3. try to delete one character

OBSERVED RESULT
1. the cursor position is irrelevant.
2. multibyte character deletion is not convenient.

EXPECTED RESULT
1. the cursor should point to the position where it actually adds characters.
2. the deletion of a multibyte character should be done in one step.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.5

Seems working for me with konsole 20.08.3 and Plasma 5.20.3, unless I am misunderstanding your issue
