--- Comment #4 from Arthur Kasimov <kodemeister at outlook.com> ---
Indeed, the comment to the code says it is intentional but the result looks
buggy. In most other terminal emulators the cursor height is the same as line
height without any gaps.

I checked further and seems like this code was added while fixing another bug
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=343283

The last commenter also wonders why the cursor is shifted down by one pixel.
Seems like it was just an arbitrary choice without a clear reason. I believe it
would be better to remove the gap and draw the cursor just like other terminal
emulators do.
