Okay, strange. I have been unable to duplicate this; it works fine now. Weird.

Okay, I'm having the problem again. It seems to be sporadic, but it either happens during an single program execution, or not. (If it happens, it will happen until I quit and try again)

This one is a simpler case than the lobby, so it should be working now in 4.068 :)

You said you had to not use Unity's built in window class? Does that mean you can't use Unity's built in text-box either?

Their window system is just an extra layer that you can either use or not use. The textboxes do seem to like the windows better than my psuedo-window boxes, but they are actually all functioning now even if they don't all draw the cursor line or highlight rectangle (in my experience, the in-game-chat, lobby-chat, and both planet-notes textboxes draw them fine, but none of the others do).

There are some "lateral thinking" solutions I have in mind for the long run, but this is all we can do for now, and it is working.

Darn you finicky APIs that are supposed to be generic but don't work right when you don't use them in ways that are unusual but still allowed by the API. Darn you!

It's not so bad, I'm sure we've got worse bugs in our own code. Of course, we can _fix_ those, but anyway...
