An alternative to having the cursor drop while spaces are added above would be 
to put a down-arrow between lines (slightly overlapping characters if 
necessary) that points to where the next non-space character will appear, if it 
will appear on the next line. That wouldn't exactly say to the typist, "Put 
your text here" as scottydm wanted, but at least it would show that the next 
non-space character will show on the next line. The down-arrow would appear 
even when a word is being entered at the end of a line (if the next letter 
would appear below), but with word wrapping the entire word would drop (snap 
down?), so the arrow wouldn't always point to the first space of the next line. 
The down-arrow would not cause a new line to appear. It would just point to a 
possible future new line.

There have been times when I wanted to fit everything on one page, and I'd type 
part of the last word and all in a sudden a new page appears. I'd have a 
warning of that with this idea. The arrow would appear on the current page and 
point down to let me know that a new page will begin if I enter another 
character.
