Hi!
I include some correspondence with John which didn't make it to the list.

I'm afraid someone else has to test, it's perfect with Aqua. The cursor disappears
as soon as another window gets the focus, but I moved LyX to the bottom of the
screen so that the cursor was overlapped by the task bar and its tooltips.
I could move the LyX cursor below those (they are semi-transparent) without
any artefacts.
Then just stick it in

I don't have CVS commit rights :-)
Anyhow, it should be tested with Linux and Windows also. The patch is easy:
comment line 152 "lyx_gui::sync_events();" in file frontends/screen.C
Testing is only needed for Qt, since sync_events() is empty for all other frontends.
Ciao /Andreas
