Unnecessary :foreground attribute for cursor

[lovelymono]

I tried customizing cursor face to make it more readable, but couldn't figure out why the cursor foreground changes when selecting things. It turns out that Emacs doesn't support customizing it¹.

On graphical displays, the background color of this face is used to draw the text cursor. None of the other attributes of this face have any effect; the foreground color for text under the cursor is taken from the background color of the underlying text.

So, it's not really a bug or anything... just wanted to let you know that it's not really necessary to set it, since it gets ignored anyway.
