For me, a bad interaction is one where p-r-f followed by redisplay
followed by p-r-f followed by redisplay doesn't give the right answer.
But with something like `cursor-intangible', there will surely be cases
where that can happen. E.g. imagine you scroll to a part of the buffer
that's got a cursor-intangible element: redisplay will move point to
a visible (and intangible) part of the buffer, then run p-r-f which
moves point outside of the window, after which redisplay has two
choices: either it decides to scroll to where point is (which would be
wrong, since we've just scrolled so we should move point rather than
scroll), or it moves point back into the intangible element.

I agree that running it for cursor blinking is a misfeature.

Yup.

Implement a new `cursor-intangible' property, by having p-r-f move point
away from text with that property.
