In a new document open a math inset and enter e=mc^2. Split the view

remains stuck at the start of the inset (before the "e"). It does
respond to the arrow keys. However, if in the right view I place
the cursor *inside* the math inset, then on the left the cursor once
more responds to the mouse.
The problem is present for me in both 2.1.0beta2 and 2.0.7 on
Windows 7, but it has been there for a year or more, including on a
Windows Vista computer (with a different mouse) and earlier members
of the 2.0.x series.

I should have added that the left and right views behave differently
and can't be interchanged to show the bug. If the cursor is placed
outside the inset in the left view, it will respond to the mouse in
the inset on the right. When the screen is split into upper and lower
halves, the top half behaves like the left view and the bottom half
like the right view.
Can't reproduce on Fedora 17 (a bit out of date, but Qt 4.8.4).

I've just checked on my older computer (Vista) which has rc1 installed.
The problem is still there. Also, in a long document with a split view,
if the formula in the right view scrolls off screen (it seems to need to
be about two lines off screen), mouse-driven cursor movement in the
formula in the left view becomes available again.
(I've also put this on the user's list to see if someone else with a
Windows machine can reproduce it.)
