run editor (HTML or plaintext)
put the cursor at the end of any line (really the end, so if there is a trailing
space, be sure the caret is after the space.)
backspace while the caret is visible
notice the vertical line display cruft
backspace again while the caret has blinked off
no cruft

Reassigning this, due to current focus on performance issues. Kin, this should be
pretty trivial, and it's going to be easier for you to find it on Windows than
for me to. Once you find the place where you need to turn off the caret, you can
use the stack-based StCaretHider in nsICaret.h to do so.

Added code to DrawCaretWithContext() that makes sure that the caret doesn't hang
