Hi,

This bugfix is definitely postponed to post-etch.
AFAIK, there is no way that slang can query the current screen state, in
particular the current cursor type.
This is because (most?) terminal hardware cannot be queried. Hence the
best we can do is to try and
keep a copy/estimate of the cursor state outside of userspace
applications, ie. in the kernel,
which can be set by cursor change methods in slang and elsewhere. Then,
slang can query this to reset
the cursor on leaving an application.

Help requested to implement this, or recommend a better solution.

Regards
Alastair
