Cursor randomly jumps to end of text field #375

Description

@cinnabar777

Describe the bug

When gesture typing the cursor will randomly jump to the end of the text field. This if more noticeable here filing out the pre formatted issue reports as I'm not typing at the end of the document. It seems to happen between gesture thus starting a new word at the bottom as if I was always typing there.

To Reproduce

I have not found any consistent way to reproduce this. I disabled the touchpad mode but it has happened since, doing this very issue 😂

Expected behavior

I can understand the cursor moving when the gesture starts on the spacebar or delete key, then it is consistent movement aligned with that trigger. Therefore the cursor should not randomly jump that far unless it is the touchpad mode, and it is happening after I disabled it, unless it was some type of cache 🤷🏻‍♂️ but I also switched keyboards.

No, it just did it typing "right now I've not" jumped after I've. I do use a space in shortcuts for an apostrophe, "I ve" = I've. But there is nothing triggering it consistently.
