While editing a Java file, follow these steps to make the text input cursor disappear:

- hover with mouse over class or method call in the source code in order to get the inline javadoc popup
- hover with mouse over the popup to "activate" it (the toolbar at the bottom has to appear)
- click into the javadoc popup to focus it
- leave the javadoc popup againg by clicking into the source code

Result:
the input cursor is not visible anymore (though apparently still fully functional: text can still be edited and selected, the line is still highlighted).

The cursor appears again as soon as you click into another editor or view an re-enter the java editor again.

Could reproduce this on several eclipse installations on other machines in both Indigo SR2 and Juno SR2.
