(Get the code!)
I'm glad to see there's a fix. I haven't had the cursor staying invisible problem, but I have an issue with this setting in general.
I use focus follows mouse. When the mouse blanks out, whatever window it's over gets focus.
The use case where this behavior is most noticeable is in my IDE. I hit ctrl-h to make a search window pop up. I start typing in the search. Then my mouse disappears and focus switches to my IDE's editor. Now I'm typing a fragment of my search in there. This happens a couple times a minute and it's aggravating as hell.
Please consider changing the default setting OR the behavior of the mosue blanking out so that it doesn't trigger focus.
