   On my (calibrated) monitor this is quote horrible and milky with low   
   text/background contrast. Since standard white is not the brightest, it looks   
   like bright grey on light grey ...

   Still, the cursor here is perfectly visible and appears more like the text   
   than the background.   
      
    MF> I've tried changing the background colour to a slightly lighter   
      
   Well the cursor is brighter than the background here, so adjusting it that   
   direction is not supposed to help?

    MF> further improve matters, what do you think?   
      
   Block cursors are today used to indicate overwrite mode. Try pressing    
   in the editor to see one. Thus, this is IMO not an option here (and would   
   involve changing the underlying control).    
      
   I truly believe your display needs help. However, there is also a lot of   
   difference in human perception (let alone taste), that might also be involved   
   here. Will check, if there are options to modify the cursor itself in any way   
   without rewriting the control.   
      
   Regards,
