Video of the bug.

When typing in in Hebrew (possibly in other languages too) it first behaves normally but then when pressing space (or any other punctuation char) the word turns into squares.
When non-printing chars are displayed, the letters are misplaced as well.

Checked on 4.2.4 and 4.2.0.4, Windows, videos attached.
