Title:
  gedit hides mouse pointer when there is selected text

Status in gedit package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I'm not sure if this bug applies to other apps, but I could only make it happen in gedit.
  To reproduce in 14.10beta2:
  1. open gedit
  2. type some text
  3. select some text with keyboard (i.e. shift + arrow keys)
