Well, you asked for it.
I beat on this quite a bit, and I could tell the cursor blink "reset" has
fixed a ton of cursor dirt problems. My hat goes off to you. Terrific job.
Yet the challenge remained, so here is what I believe might actually be the
last of the cursor dirt problems: Make sure spell checking is on. Type
"foo foo foooooooooooo." Now hold down the left arrow key without letting
go. Notice the half-width cursor in front of the third word. D'oh!
In all fairness, I think this one has been there for awhile.
