This has been discussed and answered many times. The answer is no.
1) X always must always have a cursor.
2) The cursor's appearence depends on the window it is over.
You can change the root window cursor with xsetroot, and if another
window doesn't specify a cursor, it inherits the cursor from it's
parent. If no parent all the way down to the root window has
specified a cursor then that window gets the root window cursor.
But if windows have specified cursors explicitly, there's nothing
you can do about that.
Mark.
