You need an evil-company-box-state about company-box HOT 7 CLOSED

I can make the necessary changes, just let me know if you want this to be part of the main package

Yes please, that would be great, I think it should stay in the package.

You need to define a proper evil state and activate it in the company-box buffer.

The company-box buffer and its frame are never selected, commands are executed "remotely" from the current buffer. So I'm not sure if you're right about that, but since I know nothing about evil...

There doesn't seem to be a cursor displayed in the company-box buffer even with evil. What is the problem this would address?

from company-box.

It's definitely around for me. I've now removed it from the main window, but it's still visible in the scrollbar.

I think I can replicate that. Changing cursor-in-non-selected-windows to nil should be a sufficient fix though. I don't think there's a need to do anything specifically related to evil.

Not everyone will want to change global settings to accommodate company-box. And it's not like the fix is all that complicated or expensive. It's just one trivial function and 1 or 2 well placed hooks to call it.

I was suggesting setting it locally not globally.

Ah, I thought it was a global variable. Never mind then.
