This makes me wonder.. how hard would it be to make the hardware cursor
be the X11 cursor? I think that would be very useful, especially for
windowed apps. And it would give enable_hardware_cursor a real purpose,
besides changing how the cursor is handled internally. (And of course,
switching to warped mode would have to be completely disabled as long as
it is enabled.)
