Description

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a 2 state application. e.g. Login and AfterLogin.
2. In the Login state, create User and Password fields, both displayAsPassword.
3. Make the form have a defaultButton so it can be submitted by pressing the Enter key.
4. Place the mouse cursor over the TextInput for username and click to give focus.
5. Type a user.
6. Press TAB key to skip to password, DO NOT MOVE MOUSE from over the username login.
7. After entering password, press Enter to submit and make sure states are changed.
8. Now you have the Text Cursor instead of the normal one and cursorManager.removeAllCursors(); will not remove it.

*) To get rid of the Text Cursor you have to go over a TextInput.

Workaround (if any):

Only think I could find now is to not use a defaultButton for the form, thus forcing the user to move the mouse to click the button.
