Add option to change cursor foreground colour #5269

Describe the solution you'd like?

There is now an option to change the cursor colour for a theme. However, if I use the block cursor or Vim keybindings when I'm in visual mode depending on what I change that colour to the text can become invisible. If the text is dark and the cursor is light (or visa versa) then everything works great. But because the colour of the text doesn't seem to change when you move over the letter it can result in some bad contrast.

It would be great if I could specify a foreground colour for the cursor as well as the background.

Thanks for this feature request @joshdales I see how the cursor color may make the text harder to see in those cases. I'll let the team know and we'll post any updates on this thread.
