It's indeed the combination of a default blinking cursor (the one from
`blink-cursor-mode' namely) _and_ the cursor jump that horrifies me.  If
you are used to a non-blinking cursor and `show-paren-mode' like me,
such effects can be distracting.  But I certainly don't want to impose
my habits on anyone.
