> So that cursor-type is no longer a window-parameter?

Yes.  IIUC it would mean that we have to initialize the cursor_type slot
of a new window to t.  With the window parameter solution one would have
to add a new 'cursor-type' parameter with a value of t whenever making a
new window.  This would break with the convention that non-nil window
parameters are used for handling "special" behaviors only.
