Eli confirmed that 'cursor face is special-cased and stashed for cursor
display.

Interesting, didn't know about that one. It seems to just use an
overlay at point. I had thought of using an overlay, but of course the
cursor "blinks". Since I'm already using an "unhiding" overlay, another
option is to allow altering the face of the full hidden-marker-wrapped
text entity. E.g. you could change the background color or add a
uniquely colored underline. You'd then have any and all of the
following options:
1. Change cursor type "inside" (distinct per window).
2. Unhide the hidden markers when inside.
3. Change the face of the full hidden-marker text (e.g. add overline,
background color, etc.)
I have a version which implements this (for emphasis only at first);
will push to a feature branch once I'm able.
