    In emacs 22, we don't show a block cursor on images; instead we just
    put a border on the image.  The rationale is that the old behaviour was
    really ugly in most cases ... particularly when using a blinking cursor.

    Is this something you really need?

Unless this is so grave as to count as a bug, let's leave it alone, so
we can proceed to pretest.
