Final (hopefully) version of this patch attached.

I guess there are still issues with it, but we’re running out of time
to sort them for Emacs 26.2.

From a practical stand point I don’t think this is really any
different from the last one, but it has some comment changes and a
change to how we handle requests to copy parts of the screen, since
they were the major issue still with ghosting cursors.

I probably need to double check it’s OK on GNUstep, but I don’t
foresee any issues there.
