Mostly unrelated to the current discussion, but I thought I'd raise that
anyway: the principle that insertion should happen at cursor location is
not carved in stone. It will possibly not hold with bidirectional
editing: when typing bidirectional text, it sometimes makes sense to
insert characters not at the cursor (some editors do that).
So I think the possibility that insertion happens not at cursor should
not be discarded right away: perhaps it makes sense to users in some
situations. (I'm not saying that the situations you are discussing are
such cases.)
