> During my ongoing work on developing feature requests #22873 (multiple fake cursors) and #17684 (crosshairs / fill-column), I came up with a new cursor type for all three GUI platforms (X11, NS, and NT).  It is a hollow cursor, with a filled inner color, and a different (or same color) for the glyph character as the outer frame of the cursor.

I don't think I understand what you mean.  Can you show a screenshot?

Thanks.
