The current one-pixel thing is displayed outside of the character
cell, and it has the color of the region face.

Usually, but not always. More generally, I'm not sure the visual

That'd mean we need to display the cursor specially there. IOW, it is
no longer a simple face.
It might be better and easier to introduce a defcustom that disables
the visualization of zero-width rectangles. Was that considered as a
solution to this issue?
