hmm - i'm wondering if this is the right way to go. IMHO you should use the
theme for this? for example i recently expanded the theme to also emit signals
to the pointer on mouse down/up and move etc. so you can display the pointer
when you press on the screen (like a semi-transparent circle or something) and
have it hidden otherwise. doing the whole "hold for 1 second for right mouse"
thing we could start adding later and thus do it with the e cursor animated
etc. etc. - this is much more flexible. so do you REALLY want entirely NO
cursor?
