Created attachment 149356 [details] Plasma Components - TextField cursor SUMMARY The hitbox area for the "text" cursor of the TextField component in Plasma is weird. There is a thin 1px line where the cursor becomes a "text" one, but even that is not really consistent. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open some applet with a search field, e.g. Networks, Clipboard or Printers. 2. Hover over the search field, move cursor around. OBSERVED RESULT Cursor stays a normal pointer most of the time. Sometimes when on the edge of the text field it changes to "text" cursor. EXPECTED RESULT As in normal text fields.

Even a blank ActionTextField {} exhibits the issue. It's something in there, because the standard TextField is okay.
It's not about the TextField. It is a more general bug how system tray popup dialogs handle mouse hovering. If you place an applet on its own on a desktop, everything will be fine with its TextField. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 454714 ***
Indeed, can confirm. How strange.
