 the type is not mentioned as an @var{on-state} here.  Changes in this

+@defvar cursor-in-non-selected-windows
+This variable controls how the cursor looks in a window that is not
+selected.  It supports the same values as the @code{cursor-type} frame
+parameter; also, @code{nil} means don't display a cursor in
+nonselected windows, and @code{t} (the default) means use a standard
+modificatoin of the usual cursor type (solid box becomes hollow box,
+and bar becomes a narrower bar).
