Downstream:

  Bugzilla Bug 205588: gnome-terminal wakes up a few times a second when idle
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=205588

Basically we should:

  - Stop poll timeout when no cursor is blinking
  - Stop blinking after some time (this can use the new API/functionality in Gtk+)

A related bug is the g-t bug 342921:
  - Follow GNOME's blinking preferences
Comment 1 Matthias Clasen 2006-09-07 17:25:13 UTC
the frequent wakeups are vte_invalidate_cursor_periodic being installed even
if blinking is disabled.

Eep.  Sorry.  I was just pointed to this bug.
