User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.14; rv:86.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/86.0
Steps to reproduce:
Tried to bibisect a recent bug.
1A. Got to build selection. Selected everything, tried to type appropriate date.
1B. Checked, nothing had happened.
1C. Should have gotten the date I'd typed in.
2A. Clicked on a specific spot.
2B. Checked, couldn't see any text because of blinding cursor, got painful migraine from blinding cursor.
2C. Shouldn't have gotten migraine.
Expected results:
When selecting the whole line-- mozregression should allow users to type new values to replace the whole line.
To avoid malformed dates, maybe mozregession should show separate fields for year, month, and day.
That's make it harder to type than 1 field for all 3, but easier to type than ignoring whatever users type.
When selecting a specific spot, mozregression should refer to either ui.caretBlinkTime, if users have created the appropriate Firefox preference and it is available in their profile, or check system settings such as Reduce Motion, NSTextInsertPointBlinkPeriod, etc. depending on the operating system.

Thanks for reporting this, this looks similar/identical to bug 1635680 which you filed last year. I'm sympathetic to the issues you're experiencing, but I don't know when I might (personally) have time to look into fixing them.
