[Message part 2 (message/rfc822, inline)]

The `cursor' property does not work properly on overlays when
bidi-display-reordering is t and the overlay string is line wrapped.

   emacs -Q

Eval

    (let ((o (make-overlay (point-max) (point-max)))
          (s (make-string (+ 5 (window-width)) ?-)))
      (put-text-property 0 1 'cursor t s)
      (overlay-put o 'after-string s)
      (goto-char (point-max)))

The cursor is expected to be displayed before the overlay, but is
displayed after it.

(This bug makes icomplete-mode very confusing to use.)
