Or perhaps such an addition wouldn't be appropriate because it only
applies to GTK applications and the xfce team would only want to include
such a control if it were universal? In any case, I'll try to bring this
to the attention of the xfce maintainers (and add answers to
askubuntu.com, etc).
I grepped for 463 against everything in my home directory and this was at the
top of the list:
.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xsettings.xml:
(Apparently I'm also not very familiar with the xfce ecosystem.)
It seems there is some mechanism by which changes to properties in dconf

Title:
The blink time does seem to be a bit less than a half second. If I count

Oops, time should also match and it doesn't.
Can you confirm that blinking is pretty fast for you, that is, the
duration of an entire cycle (on + off phases) is a bit less than half a
second (463 ms, rather than 1.2
#2 Thanks for the comment. I'm accustomed to blinking following focus. The
values I have in dconf are:
cursor-blink: true
cursor-blink-time: 1200
cursor-blink-timeout: 1
I built vte 0.54.1 and ran the test app with debugging messages on as
you described. There is a line referring to "Cursor
VTE does have code in place to support these variables and they work for
me. No need for reboot, not even to restart gnome-terminal, it should
pick up the change immediately.
It stops blinking the cursor when the focus is lost, and restarts
blinking it when the terminal is focused again. Are you
