As I said, if you enable also `show-paren-mode', then the cursor stays 
put (AFAICT).  You get the advantages of both: message when needed and
highlighting.

Just make that combination the default.  Anyone wanting just the
blinking can turn off `show-paren-mode'.  Anyone not wanting the
off-window msg can turn off `blink-matching-paren'.
