Regression—shadow note appears in note entry with keyboard or piano keyboard
GIT commit: a41b109 / Windows7
1) "My First Score"
2) Note entry mode (don't never touch the mouse)
3) Enter a C with keyboard (quarter note eg)
Result: a shadow note B appears into the cursor (following beat), and so on with the following entered notes.
This shadow note (artefact) is always a B or a D depending the entered notes.
Simply by moving the mouse, this shadow note disappears. And reappears by continuing the entering via the keyboard ou piano keyboard.
- I named this as an "artefact", but don't know really the good term.

Reported again at #114121: Regression—shadow note appears during keyboard entry.
This is visible in Peter Jonas / shoogle's latest GSoC video-blog—a shadow half note keeps moving along and just won't go away during re-pitch mode: https://youtu.be/qal1CLbw_R8?list=PLEyJ0kN-yEX8PrCM5BtbVsZTyJXF2LlIN&t=…
Confirmed.
If this is indeed a bug, then here is a patch to fix it. However, there must have been a reason for making the shadow note follow the position cursor like that. I just don't know what that reason was.
