Do PCs (or common graphics cards) have a hardware graphics cursor for
plotting mouse cursors? If so that would tell Plex86 where the guest
cursor was, so that you could warp the X cursor to the right place
(and move it off when it hits the edge of the screen). If not, then
that sounds tricky to me.
