Description

I have micro editor and xfce4-terminal with I-Beam (vertical line) cursor shape. But when I add multiple cursors in micro the additional cursor style becomes block instead of I-Beam.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in micro using xfce4-terminal configured with an I-Beam cursor, then trace how micro renders the primary and additional cursors. Done means all cursors use the configured I-Beam shape instead of changing additional cursors to block; the payload does not identify a file or test entry point.
