TBH until recently I thought this problem had gone away. Shortly after powertop came out the blinking cursor issue was identified as an issue and I saw patches flying around to fix the problems. It wasn't until I noticed OLPC was patching some part of the the gnome stack to fix the issue that I realised that it was still an issue. Surely it can be made some sort of "Cursor Blink" config option that is disabled by default but allow the people that want blinking to enable it relatively simply.
