The attached patch restarts the blink timer whenever the cursor is moved, 
which makes for much more pleasant scrolling.

Setting cursorOn = true; is already better than the current state. 
Resetting the timer is more pleasant because it makes sure that the cursor 
will remain visible for a short time after the user stopped scrolling. It 
also prevents the situation where the cursor disappears for a short time 
when an arrow key is pressed before the key repeat kicks in.

hth,
Nicolai
