Description
Using the "indicatif" crate, I have a progress bar set to blink. If the terminal window is focused, the blink works, but if another window is focused, the text won't blink. It will stay normal/dimmed until I click/alt-tab back into the terminal window.
Running on Windows 10.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the blink behavior with the indicatif crate on Windows 10, comparing a focused terminal with an unfocused one. Trace the console and terminal handling involved in blink styling. Done means the progress-bar text continues blinking when the terminal window is not focused.
