Summary: Select Cursor does not Correspond to Text In New PD-E

Initial Comment:
Basically the change to the new font(s) has caused the mouse cursor to be inaccurate when selecting text.  It seems to be assuming the wider courier font is in use.  This combined with the next bug I'm about to submit regarding backwards delete has made things a bit tedious.

This is on i386 and PPC OS X (though I assume this is platform independent) with the lastest 392 autobuilds.

A picture is included with a badly rendered OmniDazzle cursor in the position of the actual cursor (since the cursor is not included in OS X screengrabs), and the text cursor in the position that results from a click at that point.

This stuff is still a work in progress.  Most importantly, you need to
have DejaVu Sans Mono font currently.  Otherwise, it picks a proportional
font, and causes the misalignment.

I can confirm this behavior, using the intel mac build.
