[BRLTTY] Cursor visible in task switching window in Cygwin

Hi folks,

I don't know whether this has recently changed or whether I just now noticed 
it.

For the benefit of Linux users: In Windows one can hold down either alt key 
and tab among the different tasks currently running. As long as the alt key 
is held down a special window pops up displaying the title of the task 
you'll switch to if you release the alt key.

If I start from a Cygwin task it's brltty that displays that title. It just 
dawned on me that the cursor shows up under the first letter of each of 
these titles. Since this is read only text there's no need for the cursor to 
show up here. Is it easy to retract the cursor for this window? This would 
be especially useful if I'm using the block cursor since it obliterates the 
first letter of each title.

Thanks,
