Thanks for looking. I wouldn't say that it is a bug but probably a 
necessary enhancement.

The other thing is that in many applications the cursor goes transparent 
after a few seconds but then reappears as soon as it is moved. The last 
bit is not wanted but the first part is. Perhaps there is already some 
setting which would at least make the cursor go transparent. I'll play 
around with this idea later.

Ciao.
