Thank you Patrice for the explanation of the mystery cursor and what's happening. It's very likely that my finger slips and hits B.
I'm not sure how to get out of the path tool though. If I select a region, do command-C, B (by mistake), command-V, M (to get back to move), the move tool is highlighted but I still have the path cursor. blocking me. I can click on the move tool multiple times but it still won't let me move. Even if click the move tool and do another command-V to paste again, I still can't move. To escape from path mode, I need to start over by selecting a new region, then command-C and command-V. (Getting stuck in path mode seems like a bug to me but probably I just don't know what is supposed to happen.)
(I'm using a Macbook, so I'm using command- rather than ctrl-)
