Bug Description
This bug was found under 2 different scenarios.
Scenario 1:
1) Create a rectangle selection.
2) Choose the Text tool and click outside the selection.
3) Type some text. The text does not appear, because it is outside of the selection.
4) Choose the "Edit -> Deselect All" menu item. The text is still not visible.
5) Choose the Paintbrush tool.
Problem: The text is not finalized until step 5. Because there is no longer a selection, the text suddenly becomes visible
Scenario 2:
1) Choose the Text tool and type "First Text" on the image.
2) Click below the "First Text" and type "Second Text".
3) Choose the Rectangle Select tool, and select "First Text".
4) Choose the Move Selected Pixels tool and move "First Text".
Problem: The text is not finalized until step 4. Because there is a now selection, "Second Text" suddenly disappears.
In both cases it was not the behavior I expected.

I can reproduce both of scenarios on master on Windows XP. In my humble opinion Scenario 1 should not even allow to type (or do any other action) outside of selected area.
