Hi Philippe,

Using the example you have linked above, the caret is displayed in the bottom-left corner on my end, after typing it jumps to the center as you've mentioned.

I'm setting a component in order to get this checked out by the development team.

Thank you for reporting!

Caret position is managed by the layout module.
