<pre>This bug is tricky.
1: select A3
2: click before A on InputLine, in Overwrite mode (Note); cell A3 goes into
edit mode, with cell A1 highlighted;
3: hit key b: A is replaced with b in editLine, but not in cell A3: '=bA1'.
Bad.
However, if the initial mode is Insert in step 2 when editing begins
(Note), hit Ins to set mode to Overwrite; now, highlighting of cell A1
disappears, and step 3 gives the correct result: '=b1'.
Note: The initial mode is important: hit Esc to end editing, then click
the editLine for a 'fresh' edit in the last mode (Insert or Overwrite), which
is now the initial mode.</pre>
