Description

To recreate.

1. Open a file in the editor (emptyfile, java file,...)
2. Insert a tab into the file
3. Place the caret over the tab

Observe the caret as it blinks and notice that it only partially blanks. There is a vertical artifact.

The jVi application uses a block caret (rather than a vertical line) and the problem is more more pronounced.
