I guess it's more about the configuration of tmux. There is in fact a cursor style setting sequence that mintty newly supports. Please make a terminal log and check whether ^[[34h (ESC [ 3 4 h) appears during tmux initialization. If so, however, the assumption is that tmux sends it on purpose, so the blame is on tmux :/ My tmux configuration does not change the cursor, like Roger's, by the way. About an option to suppress dynamic changes of cursor style, that might indeed be useful. I assume, though, that it should uniformly also suppress the DEC sequence (DECSCUSR). Or should different cursor attributes be addressable separately? (shape, blinking, colour??, even hiding???) Design proposals welcome.
