- There's too much code, the compatibility code should go

- What's the point of changing the cursor when emacs is idle?
- What's the point in changing the cursor in a read-only buffer?
- Someone that uses input methods should comment if changing the cursor
for when doing that is useful.
- Changing the cursor in overwrite mode seems like a good idea, other
editors do it too.
- IMO we should only consider adding this if we are willing to turn it
on by default. If it's not considered useful enough to be on by
default, then it seems like fluff that it's not worth documenting.
