[dev] [st] Putting cursor in the line below the current line

I watched a video exploring Sun Solaris 7[1] where the install console
had a unique cursor. It was an upward-pointing arrow _below_ the
character[2]. I'm currently trying to emulate it in st. Drawing the
cursor in the line below was easy[3], but it leaves artifacts behind,
which I am guessing isn't redrawn because st doesn't know the cursor has
been to the line below.

I've skimmed through the code, but got lost somewhere around
`xdrawglyphfontspecs`. Any suggestion on how to proceed?
