SUMMARY
The "Blinking" launch feedback appears visually glitchy.

And yes, I know this was already reported (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=405521), but it was 5 years ago, and closed because it was intended (?).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select "Blinking" in the "Configure Launch Feedback..."  inside the "Cursors" settings.
2. Launch an application.
3. See effect in the cursor.

OBSERVED RESULT
It turns into a white square.

EXPECTED RESULT
To just fade away.
