Would it be enough to increase the frequency of the blinking of the caret. Seems to me that a frenetically blinking cursor would be more easily seen.
Though TextMate doesn't respect the following system settings, maybe it should?
defaults write -g NSTextInsertionPointBlinkPeriodOff -float 0.1
defaults write -g NSTextInsertionPointBlinkPeriodOn -float 0.1
This comes from the following SuperUser post, which is actually about disabling the blinking, but seemed relevant any way.

Also some of this issue could be helped by, yet another, request for the "highlight current line" feature.
Thanks,

So far I coloured the vertical bar caret with a contrast colour against the background, but even this is not ideal. Especially if the window loses focus...
Thanks though for the suggestions. I appreciate it a lot.
Patience is the art of hoping. ;)

I know what you ultimately want. I don’t know if you’ll get it next
week, or never.
I was just offering suggestions for things you can do today.
