Isn't this the "drag-n-drop move", the cursor shows where the dragged line would be dropped?

On Win10, the cursor moves with the mouse pointer--and is not left behind when moving onto the next line above or below.

Is OP saying a visual ghost of the edit cursor is being when moving the pointer onto the next line of text?  Not seeing that.
