Cursor disappears; can't highlight text or copy

(Vague bug report incoming!)

Sometimes the cursor disappears while using Kagi. Clicking into an edit text box (like the one I'm typing in right now) normally has a flashing i-beam cursor, but sometimes - and I've not yet worked out how to reproduce it - clicking onto an edit text box like this one doesn't show an i-beam cursor. I can still type, but without the i-beam cursor it's quite unnatural. This bug (when it kicks in) is visible on every text box and input control, including the location bar.

This is also accompanied by a failure to be able to CMD+V paste material into the edit text box. You cannot also select text and copy it, either.

Reading through this forum, this bug seems the same but it seems to have been fixed. I'm still getting this issue, though.

I'm running Orion Version 0.99.132-beta (WebKit 621.1.2.111.4)
Build date Mar 17 2025
MacBook Air (macOS Sequoia 15.3.2 build 24D81)

The desired functionality is that this bug goes away, and editing text in-browser is always possible with the cursor.

for me this happens because my new tab is set to Empty Page. Empty Page seems to cause focus bugs with the address bar and in certain cases will cause focus bugs with the entire app. for me it reproduces when I open too many empty pages or when I do too many things with an empty page open (such as focusing/refocusing the app too many times, or clicking on the empty page (which doesn't defocus the address bar like it should), etc.)
