I've looked into it a bit further, 'maybe' it's possible to install an X Event 
Filter, and use Xlib functions to have the Cursor stay at the same place even 
if the mouse moves, but somehow I don't like that idea ;-)

But I made it somewhat working by moving the cursor continuously back during a 
hold action (Gain) and it's indeed nicer to work with!

However, this solution makes the Cursor very 'nervous', because it moves up 
and down very quickly to it's original position....
(and hogs the X server quite a bit :-( )

Ideas how to solve this particular 'problem' will be mostly welcome.
