It can be maddening for developers to get things right for one OS and find things have gone wrong with another. Calibre, which also uses Qt, has a UI that is a compromise because nothing works the same in the operating systems and Linux has a variety of desktops available. The complaints about the Calibre UI are perennial, but the developer has done the best while keeping it cross platform.
As I recall various Linux systems working differently is currently an issue with Sigil, though I don't recall the exact circumstances being a Windows user.
It might be nice to have the option of a line cursor or block cursor, if it could be available.
The developers work on this in their spare time, the lead developer having a full time job in developing payment systems and they have taken the program to extreme useability. There are always issues of one sort or another and whether they get worked on depends on how hard it is, how bad other issues are and how many users are affected.
