Sorry for flooding this topic, but I made a test here that exposes the
problem. I ran "xev" with and without the option to show the cursor and
the results are interesting. The test was done running xev redirecting
output to a file and I pressed the Control key 5 times in each test.
- Without the "show cursor" option I got 5 KeyPress/KeyRelease events
(see without_show_cursor.txt)
- With the "show cursor" option I got NO KeyPress/KeyRelease events,
instead there are FocusOut/FocusIn/KeymapNotify events (see
with_show_cursor.txt). It seems that the show cursor effect is a window
and it steals the focus from the current window.
I don't see how this cannot be classified as a bug.
