Unfortunately there is another problem with 3.4 on Linux, in this case
Arch with KDE Plasma, Gnucash Build ID: git 3.4-22-g3ab5a2be5+ (2019-01-13)

When editing the register Description and Notes fields, if you select a
number of characters at the end of the pre-populated text field and then
press the Delete or Backspace keys to delete the selected characters and
retain the remaining characters, the selected text is deleted but a
number of remaining characters are selected. The desired result is to
delete the selected text and leave the cursor at the end of the string.

However, this doesn't happen 100% of the time and I've not been able to
determine the steps to always reproduce it.
