Hi:

Well, it's a step in the right direction to make sure focus is visible, 
somehow, in all cases.  So that much is really good...

But the "cursor only" indication strikes me as a little weak, can we not 
draw a dotted or transparent line around the text canvas?  And of course 
red is only effective if you aren't color blind :-)

Default blinking is questionable.  At any rate it shouldn't blink faster 
than 2 Hz (could, in theory, trigger seizures in some people - US 
Federal Gov't requirement nowadays).

Regards,

-Bill
