I like the square cursor when I'm editing code because it's easier to spot, but for general text fields I prefer a pipe.

vi-wise, you need both block (signifies character) and line (signifies insertion point). I think you can live without one at the cost of redundancy or missing information. I tend to prefer missing information even though it's probably stupid. I'm agnostic to the blink.

do you like square cursors or pipe like cursors? should the cursor blink?
