* UpdatePointer even to empty workspaces This makes UpdatePointer more Xinerama-compatible: If the user switches to a screen with an empty workspace, the pointer is moved to that workspace, which I think is expected behavoiur. Wed Oct 8 17:42:45 CEST 2008 Joachim Breitner
* pointWithin has moved to the core
I have no opinion on this, but UpdatePointer's maintainer is Robert Marlow. Robert: is this accepted or rejected? -- gwern

These still apply cleanly and work as advertised under my quick testing with the different updatePointer settings. -- wmw

Sorry, I seem to have missed this thread due to heavy-handed mail deleting. I'll try to have a closer look at it over the weekend. It certainly sounds promising. If I don't reply by Monday, consider me an unreliable jerk and proceed without me.

I was far too busy to get this done this weekend (read: I'm an unreliable jerk). Please just proceed without me; the idea sounds good and if it's tested ok then I'm fine forgoing my review of it rather than making everyone wait on me. Thanks.
