No offense, but it's a bad idea. Stephan is right - it's a bug. Users
rightly associate a blinking cursor with the location where text will
appear when keys are pressed. If there is only one target for keyboard
events in the system, it should be reflected visually as well. Having a
checkbox in the preferences panel also goes against the general Be way
of doing settings - sensible defaults and only having the preferences
that are most useful.
