<pre>Description:
the text cursor remains the same regardless of the context it is inserted into.
in italics contexts, this makes it hard to find its exact position. I think
this issue could be mitigated by slanting the cursor to the same degree the
text is slanted.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. open a file
2. write something
3. make sure parts of the text are in italics and parts are in normal font
4. move the cursor between the parts in italics and the parts in normal font
Actual Results:
the text cursor does not change in any way.
Expected Results:
I think it would help if the text cursor changed to reflect the text's slant
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
