Issue 50867

MRU->OS: the "Horizontal ruler" will be inserted in the correct place, but the
cursor will blink in last position of the document after this.

*** Issue 50861 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. ***

A multi-page document isn't necessary to demonstrate the bug:

STEPS
- From the FILE menu, navigate to the NEW submenu to create a new TEXT DOCUMENT
- Enter text on a couple of lines
- Move the cursor higher up in the document
- From the INSERT menu, select HORIZONTAL RULER and choose a style
- The horizontal line will be inserted but the cursor will be positioned at the
end of the document

EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR: the cursor position remains where it was prior to the
insertion of the horizontal line

This problem occurs on both Windows and Linux platforms (Windows XP, Fedora Core
3, Red Hat Linux 7.3) using Open Office 2.0.

This bug can be quite annoying when the distance between the end of the document
and the newly inserted horizontal line is large, but it is hardly noticeable
when the two appear on the same screen view, allowing the cursor to be quickly
positioned with a single mouse click and without scrolling.

jump_to_beginning_or_end_of_file.odt: sample document with frames

This bug is really much more versatile and is not limited to horizontal rulers. When editing frames or images, Writer often jumps the view position to the beginning or the end of the file. This can be triggered
- by insertion of an image or a frame
- by changing the anchor type of a frame
- by pasting oder undoing a frame
(This is just a summary of what I have observed; very likely not complete.)

I'm attaching a sample document. Tests have been done on AOO 3.4.1 and snapshot AOO350m1(Build:9611) Rev. 1420743/2012-12-13 under Ubuntu 12.04/AMD64.
- Open file "jump_to_beginning_or_end_of_file.odt".
- Use Navigator and go to chapter "Copy and paste a frame!". Mark first frame in margin, copy it (Ctrl-C) and paste it into verious paragraphs (Ctrl-V). For AOO35 it takes while, but after some 30 pastes the view jumps to start of file. 
- Mark any of the frames, delete it and undo this via Ctrl-Z. View jumps to beginning of file.
- Insert a ruler (menu Insert/Horizontal ruler); or drag/insert an image (JPEG, PNG, EPS, TIF) somewhere. View jumps to end of file.
- Take one of the inserted images and change the anchoring type a few times. Eventually the view jumps to end of file.

CC myself

I've seen this on a couple of long documents (I cannot share them, sorry). It seems that only the view point jumps, not the cursor position: if after the jump I press ESC the view point moves again below the inserted/modified frame so it seems that the frame remains selected.
