Bug Description

BQ Aquaris m10.

Suddenly found that gedit is too buggy. Trying to fix typos on 2-3 words back, I try to move cursor position to necessary place and edit the text. After I return cursor to the end of the text to continue typing, gedit corrupts text disordering all newly entered chars (placing them not under cursor but in some strange place).

After several re-positioning (trying to fix the situation) of cursor gedit crashes. Just disappears from screen. Looses all changes.
