I assumed this Text cursor indicator feature was fairly new, it's been in Windows for almost 4 years (earlier in preview releases) - why wasn't I told

I have no idea what "…the font size set by Windows Ease of Access (EoA) exactly matches the font size used in the text editor" might mean, the Font size adjustment in EoA is for the Windows interface - it has no effect on applications like Sigil… nor should it!

AFAIK Qt has never paid much heed to the Windows Ease of Access features - the setting for text cursor thickness has been there for decades, Qt blithely ignores it. But in that it's not alone, Notepad++, and Firefox are the same for multiline text boxes.

If anyone knows of a qss tweak I can use to 'enhance' the text cursor, maybe they can give me clue - width and color maybe.
