In expected results, I meant: It should stay in Text state, whenever the cursor still is in document canvas area...

The bug appears to be prevalent only on Wayland display server.

Can you still reproduce with 7.3? There were many gtk3 fixes in the past year.

Set to NEEDINFO.
Change back to UNCONFIRMED, if the problem persists. Change to RESOLVED WORKSFORME, if the problem went away.
