I found that being able to set cursor color in different state is really useful, so I have the following to set my cursor color in emacs state:
(setq evil-emacs-state-cursor '("red" box))
and it works, however, after I pressed "C-h k <key>" in emacs state the cursor color went back to black.
Emacs allows only one cursor color per "frame" (i.e., window), so the best I can do is to ensure that the color is determined by the current buffer (commit 03004f7). If you have two buffers open, then the inactive buffer's cursor will also change color, unless you disable inactive cursors altogether by setting `cursor-in-non-selected-windows' to nil. The cursor /type/ (box, hollow, bar, etc.), on the other hand, is fully buffer-local. -- Vegard
