I did something like this a long time ago, using a plugin to write
events, and a modified backend to replay them,
the main impediment to it working was that NSMenu or something went
and got the current mouse cursor position from the backend, outside of
NSEvent... I recall there being a comment somewhere that the event
queue was 'too slow or out of date'.
so presumably one would have to override that method in the backend as
well as NSEvent (or something...)
