The blink time does seem to be a bit less than a half second. If I count
the seconds out loud it blinks twice each second with a little time to
spare.

"dconf dump /" doesn't yield any instances of 463, but does show 1205
for cursor-blink-time (so it's in harmony with the dconf-editor GUI),
and that's the only instance of 1205.

I'm running Xubuntu 18.04, using xfce as my desktop environment.

Poking around in dconf-editor, there's an org/xfce section but it only
contains data for mousepad, the default plain text editor. There an
org/gtk section, but it doesn't have anything related to cursors.
There's an org/mate/desktop/interface section, which has cursor-blink,
cursor-blink-time but not cursor-blink-timeout. I changed the value of
mate's cursor blink time to 1,195 but vte still says it's 463. (And all
the GTK apps still have the cursor blinking at that speed.)

I wonder if I should grep for 463 on every file in the system... (but
then I suppose the value is just as likely to be obfuscated in some
binary file as it is to be plain text). Thanks for your help.
