it really depends on how the terminal description is treated by the
ncurses/slang library.  slang has some hardcoded behavior to treat
the blink attribute as "bright".  you may be seeing that.  otherwise,
"bright" may refer to colors 8-15, which (given a correct terminfo),
is treated the same in ncurses and slang.
