The strangest decision regarding Mode 2 is keeping the BRIGHT and FLASH
attributes. Without those, the Ink and Paper colours could each be any of
the sixteen colours. As it is, the select colours have to both be in the

I guess it was easy to put in something like an optional shift right
by three to compose scan line number and column number when fetching

Wish we could have done a MODE 2 version of that with the SAM Version! :)
Given that, at least going from my memory, there was space to spare in the
original ZX Spectrum ROM, the flashing cursor in Spectrum BASIC could have
quite easily been implemented with interrupts and each character square
could have had complete freedom to pick any two of sixteen colours.
But
Per The Register's extended article celebrating the Spectrum's
birthday yesterday, there was more than a kilobyte of spare space in
the ROM but they intended to put the Microdrive stuff in there before
shipping. In the event it wasn't ready in time and the machine sold

Yeah, 4-pixel squares in mode 2 would be easy enough.
An authentic facsimile in Mode 1 would be tricky as there are squares with more
than 2 colours in. Achievable with rainbow processing, but that seems a bit of
a faff...
