Exactly: both the `cursor-type` variable and the `cursor-type`
frame-parameters are used by the redisplay code to decide how to draw
the cursor. But the redisplay code does not look at any
window-parameter for that, so you can't change the cursor-shape on
a "per window" basis :-(
Maybe it's time for `M-x report-emacs-bug` and request a new feature.
