Sorry, I should have done some more testing since I threw something out during development which I think is kinda important: Move the mouse cursor away from the current corner to avoid unwanted loops… Patch is attached.

I think it would be better to create InputOnly windows in the screen corners, then listen for mouse entry events. Using mouse motion on the root window seems fragile. Cheers, Spencer Janssen

Ok, I've rewritten everything to use InputOnly windows. Patch is attached. This kinda breaks the old interface of this extension, but I hope this doesnt matter in this early stage of development. :)

Sorry… Got another patch which will fix some typos. I really should have taken a closer look *before* sending these patches. :)
