Cursor does not change shape inside neovim terminal.

[hadeedji]

General information

• Terminal program: neovim embedded terminal
• Operating system: Arch Linux 6.0.9-arch1-1
• ZSH framework: NONE
• ZSH version: 5.9
• ZVM version: 0.9.0

Basic examination

• [X] I have read through the README page
• [X] I have the latest version of zsh-vi-mode
• [X] I have tested with another terminal program

Problem description

Inside the neovim terminal, cursor remains as a block in all modes.

Reproduction steps

1. Have a minimal .zshrc, the only thing it does is source this plugin.
2. Run neovim with nvim --clean, and open the terminal inside.

Expected behavior

Cursor should appear as a blinking beam in insert mode. That is the way it works in the terminal I use, kitty, even with the minimal .zshrc. This was working until recently, I can't figure out exactly what broke it.

$TERM

Both $TERM and $ZVM_TERM are set to xterm-256color inside neovim terminal. And in kitty, where everything works, both are set to xterm-kitty.

I have the same issue. Would really love to see a fix for this.
