Research direction
No file or test entry point is named. Start by reproducing the cursor behavior with VSCodeVim 1.21.4 on VSCode 1.57.1 under Linux, comparing normal-mode cursors against differently colored text; done means the cursor color follows the current text color as shown in the expected Vim example.
