Public bug reported:

1) I open an CMakeLists.txt (from llvm project)
2) cursor is in line 1
3) I Go To... 123
4) editor moves to some location, status shows Ln 123 Col 1
5) but cursor (keyboard's) is not visible (making me wonder *which* line on the 
screen is indeed 123?!)

It is subtle GUI error. I never seen any editor make editing keyboard
cursor disappear, which is why I thought to report it.

I attached the screencast (the file is already open).
