No blinking cursor after curses (S-Lang works fine)

[polluks]

Windows Terminal version (or Windows build number)

1.9.1942.0

Other Software

Any curses app

Steps to reproduce

Cursor is blinking
Start a curses app, e.g. nano (libncursesw.so.5) or vi (-lcurses.7)
Cursor stops blinking
Exit app
Cursor still stops blinking

Expected Behavior

An app should preserve the cursor attributes.

Actual Behavior

Blinking is lost.

Unfortunately, yeah... it's the app's responsibility to do this ☹️

@DHowett More precisely, the terminal framework should do it.
Linux curses and NetBSD curses both fail, strange.
Well, if you read https://invisible-island.net/ncurses/ncurses.faq.html#emacs_cvvis
the definition of "default cursor" seems to be the cause of the issue.
