I've been doing more debugging. First, I couldn't find any jumps between
the two screens that _won't_ cause the mouse "detachment". For example
(assuming screen width of 1680):

------------
#!/bin/bash

xte "mousemove 1479 5"
xte "mousemove 1900 5"
------------

------------
#!/bin/bash

xte "mousemove 1200 5"
xte "mousemove 2100 5"
------------

Also, this (apparently) isn't time related. Making sure not to move your
mouse, try (again, adjusted for your resolution):

------------
#!/bin/bash

xte "mousemove 1200 5"
sleep 1
xte "mousemove 2100 5"
-------------


After messing with that, I was curious about where the cursor ostensibly was 
during "detachment". So, I dug around for applications to detect the cursor 
position and found a QT3 script on some forum, which I've attached. I don't 
know if this will work for everybody on Gnome, but it works under KDE4 and I 
assume also under KDE3. (See readme.txt in the zip).

The upshot: the cursor is registered as being stuck at 0,0 during
"detachment"; despite me seeing the cursor moving on screen, the
coordinates stay registered as being at 0,0.
