Hello. I'm using ThunderBird version 140.6.0esr (64-bit) in LiuxMint 22.2 (x86_64) kernel 6.8.0-90-generic.
I noticed that after some updates of Thunderbird that my Grammalecte add-on had disappeared from the menu-bar.
I re-installed Grammalecte(fr) version 2.1.1 from the Extensions library in the Add-ons Manager.
Now. when creating a new mail After I close the "Analyser" window, my cursor is invisible. I can't see the text insertion point anymore. No more blinking cursor. Although editing the the message is still ok.
Did I miss something when installing? Or is there a dependency problem in the build? (I don't code)

Confirmed.

I reproduce this issue on Windows with Grammalecte 2.3 and Thunderbird 146.

I don’t think this is a dependancy problem.
I don’t remember having changed something about the cursor. I’ll investigate.

I also face this issue when a popup is shown. 

For example, I write an email with something like "see the file attached" and I do not attch the file. Thunderbird identifies there is a missing file and shows a popup asking if it is expected to send without attachment. 

In this case,

- if grammalecte is deactivated, the cursor is visible everywhere
- if grammalecte is activated, the cursor is visible only over the popup

I didn’t change anything about the cursor recently, and I don’t remember having this issue few years ago. But I’m not sure, for I don’t use much Grammalecte in Thunderbird.
I checked previous changes in the code, and saw nothing about the cursor.
