Yes, I configure it and all  software I can with a blinking box cursor.

No, I find it necessary.

No. But I would not do it.

No, none.

In an editor or a terminal, I prefer a box over a bar, and I prefer
blinking over static.

No, never.

Cursor should stop blinking when the frame is not active.  This is
what is implemented, so I'm happy, since it allows me to spot the
active cursor faster.
