[libreoffice-users] Calc F2 cursor trail between brackets of function

When in Calc while editing a formula (within the cell via F2) with
characters between brackets like: =SUMIFS*(*
$TB_data.C$8:C$32,$TB_data.D$8:D$32,A36*)* or =*(*A1+A2+A3*)*.

If the arrow keys are used to moved left and right, while moving past the
character within brackets a cursor trail is displayed like this:
  SUMIFS($|T|B|_|d|a|t|a|.|C|$|8|:|C|$|3|2|,|$|T|B|_|d|a|t|a|.|D|$|8|:|D|$|3|2|,|A|3|6).
The first use of F2 editing is OK but subsequent uses display this behavior.

When you get to the closing bracket the cursor trail disappears.  Or if you
minimize then restore the window the cursor trail disappears.

It seems to happen only within brackets, seems to be a failure to refresh
while within brackets, impacts Linux & Windows versions, and this display
error was not always present.  This behavior is described in bug 67787 from
2013-08-05.

I believe it may be related to the bracket matching (high lighting) feature
that was introduced a few years back.  Does anyone recall which version
added that feature or know anything about this feature?

I find this super annoying and would like to improve the bug report.  If
related to bracket matching I'd rather that be disabled versus a cursor
trail rendering F2 in cell editing useless. It also makes LO look
unpolished.
