When you create a new XML tag (or HTML tag) and NetBeans automatically adds the closing tag, the system needs to place the cursor between the opening and closing tags (where the user will be typing content).

More than 50% of the time, the user will need to add content so it makes sense to place the cursor where the content will be created.
