> I just noticed a different behavior (when I look at the binaries of Thunderbird in C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird, I see the version 78.2.0.7538 and file dates from just half an hour ago. Thunderbird seems to have updated.). When I now create a new calendar event, the cursor blinks in the text box near "Title". Basically, that is better than before, but this text box still contains the entry "Neuer Termin".
> It would be an acceptable solution if the "Neuer Termin" text would be selected. But the cursor position is right after the "n" of "Termin". So I have to first delete the "Neuer Termin", then I can start entering my event text.
> I know that this bug is still in state open, but I wonder where this different behavior comes from. Was it fixed with another bug which deals in the same area?

Yes it was fixed in bug 1656693.

There are several workarounds.
Select the Calendar in the event creation dialog.
Press the Tab key twice.
That highlights the "Neuer Termin" like it worked before.
Start typing.

Select "Neuer Termin" and double click the left mouse button.
Start typing.

Right click in the Title field.
Choose "Select All"
Start typing.
