The text cursor on the Hexadecimal field is repositioned to start of field
during entry, before input is complete.  

Simple STR try to enter 1F320 SHOOTING STAR from Miscellaneous Symbols and
Pictographs Unicode section.

1. open Writer, change font to Symbola [1]
2. open Special character dialog
3. enter 1f3 in Hex search field
4. LATIN SMALL LETTER DZ shown in preview, and on chart
Note position of entry cursor -> start of field

5. continuing enter 2 -> 21F3 value, so not helpful
6. have to stop entry and position to end of field enter 2 -> 1F32
7. GREEK SMALL LETTER IOTA WITH PSILI AND VARIA
Note position of entry cursor -> now end of field

8. enter 0 -> 1F320 value "Missing Glyph" and no change to Subset 

But kind of expect that 8. will change when
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=cf6c748f30fd630b6b7256e0c7ba1783892f9d1e
rolls.

So the issue with field cursor is just while entering values in the Hexadecimal
field. Entering the Decimal value also returns glyphs for codepoints, but does
not reposition the cursor to the start of the field so typing can continue.
