You might want to be more considerate of comint and preserve the
nonstickiness behavior for the properties that it places, e.g. something
like:

    (cursor-intangible t rear-nonsticky (field read-only 
inhibit-line-move-field-capture))

[ This value of `rear-nonsticky` is the I used in the patch I just
  installed into `master`.  ]

Even if it doesn't end up with a bug report in Emacs, I'd be interested
to know what was the culprit and how it ended up behaving that way.
