Summary:
Toggling Show All Issues moves the blinking cursor's position, but not the insertion point.

I was editing some code, had Show All Issues on.  I turned it off, and noticed my insertion point was blinking up a line.  This wasn't the actual insertion point - when I started typing, it went to where the cursor was.

Attached is a video showing what happens.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Be editing around a show-all-issues placard.
2. Cursor to two or three lines below the placard
3. Turn show-all-issues off

Expected Results:
4. The insertion point and blinking cursor stay where they were

Actual Results:
4. The blinking cursor moves, but not the insertion point.  They're disconnected until the next keystroke.

Version:
Version 8.0 beta 2 (8S162m)
10.11.5 (15F34)


Notes:
It's really not that big a deal - just never trust the insertion point, but
when these kinds of things happen day-in, day-out, it's just another heavy-sigh
death-of-a-thousand-cuts that makes using Xcode unpleasant.
