In the german wikipedia the cursor in the input field looks strange. The cursor seems to have a little dot on the left side, almost looking like a cross. It occours at least in all versions of mozilla firefox from 0.5 to 1.0.1. I was not able to reproduce it in IE or Opera. I never saw this on any other site (including Wikipedia in other languages). Is this a browser bug, a stylesheet bug or even inteded? See also http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Beobachtete_Fehler#Komischer_Cursor_in_Firefox for a picture of the effect and a description in German.
Not a bug; this indicates writing direction and will sometimes be displayed when editing unicode text. It's not under our control anyway; it's either an operating system GUI library or browser feature.
