Hi,

right now, when using alpha-background, the cursor is set to the opacity
of the background (i think that is because, as documented, only the
:background attribute of the face is used). that means that, if one sets
'alpha-background to 0 to make the background transparent, the cursor
becomes invisible when not over a character (and really difficult to
spot even when over one), no matter its colour (i've tried with pgtk and
no-toolkit builds).

Am i missing an existing setting to avoid that problem, or perhaps doing
something wrong? if not, it'd be nice to have the option of making the
cursor behave as foreground (perhaps by honouring :foreground in its
face, if set), so that one could have a fully transparent background and
a cursor visible at all times.

thanks,
jao
