That was fast, thanks :) I still think, we don't need an arbitrary limit
at 10x.. if a user passes a speed of 1000, then let them live with the
result.
Also - do you think it would work fine using hundreths instead of tenth?
E.g. if someone has 1/3 (0.33) as default speed, it would now get 3/10
(0.30) - probably not noticable, but with 1/100 instead of 1/10 we would
be at the safe side :)
Hm, and set_mouse_speed really is a bad API, only way to speed up is by
passing the value 1. Anyway, nothing that can be done about that.
