Your problem seems to be different than mine.

I must admit that I'd not done any detailed analysis.  I will have to
try composing a message when the condition happens again.  As well as
copy/paste to a different window outside of TB.

In my case, since it only affects the Chinese characters I wonder if it
is some sort of memory corruption. 

A long time ago, I did see something along the lines of what you
describe.  It ended up being a video driver issue.

Hey, since you didn't talk about line lengths there was no hijacking
whatsoever.  :-) :-)
