Friends, the pont is: can I instantly spot the cursor location on a large 
screen to assure 
that my paste operation hits the right target? visual feedback is the basic 
requirement in 
a user interface (and not the design satisying only black-clothed people).

Nowadays so much more mousing is required than in the good old FM < 9 days, 
because many 
Windows features (e.g. title area of app window) are just ignored by the new 
interface. 
Focus is lost every now and then (e.g. after zooming), need to click into the 
doc 
window... Some very basic things hamper the otherwise not so bad new interface.

Let's stop the rant now - it does not solve a single issue.
