In the mean time I've tried xfce, icewm and windowmaker – /org/gnome/desktop/interface/cursor-blink* weren't used by VTE in any of them, some hardcoded defaults were used. I guess some dconf or gsettings daemon needs to be running to have the required binding in place (not sure).
Thanks for the investigation!
