The cursor's really hard to see when it's to the left of a matched search term. It's pretty hard to see on the right boundary too.

This needs some #design love.

I took a look at how some other editors handle this. IntelliJ's cursor is 2px wide, so it is easier to see.

Sublime text offsets the cursor by one pixel. But it is still difficult to see.

Changing the cursor state if it is over a marker region is a possibility, but I worry about the overhead involved. I think a better option might be to color the cursor and the marker regions a different color.

I think this can be fixed on a per-theme basis since it can control the cursor and highlight color.
