Matching bracket only highlighted for primary with multi cursor

[A-Walrus]

When using multiple cursors (like with C) with the cursor over brackets, the matching bracket is only highlighted for the primary selection.

What do you think?

• This is intended behavior and shouldn't change
• All matching brackets should always be highlighted
• This should be configurable, 3 options: all, primary, none (what should be the default)?

Tangent on configuring the matching indicator shape:

@A-Walrus how are you able to get the matching indicator to be an underline while the cursor is a block?

In my editor right now this is how matching renders:

The cursor is grey while the matching indicator is orange. Both are blocks. For me, distinguishing by color alone is really error prone, so I often get lost when navigating around brackets as to where the actual cursor is. I'd love to configure the match indicator to be an underscore as in your rendering.

I have found I can reconfigure the cursor with editor.cursor-shape.normal and I can set that to a bar or underline. The problem is I want the main cursor to be a block and the matching indicator to be a bar.

I searched issues, PRs, and discussions for this issue and couldn't find it, although this discussion gets close (it is about colors only IIUC).

@nathan-at-least This is up to the theme. Defined by the ui.cursor.match key. You can try modifying your theme (or creating a new theme that inherits from it) to add it. The screenshot is with the dark_plus theme
