I've tested this in vmware and it does make the cursor switch back
sometimes, but very unreliably. Most of the time I still have an "I"
where you'd want an arrow.
It's also extremely unpredictable: sometimes when you move from one area
to another the cursor changes back, on other occasions it does not.
During localechooser I could hardly get the cursor correct at all, later
it was a bit better.
It also seems to change late sometimes ("long" after you've already
crossed over to another area). The overall effect is very erratic.
Also, if you go from description _around_ e.g. a text input box, the
cursor will not change.
Personally I'd prefer to keep the current behavior over a hack that only
half works. If you can improve the patch, that'd be different of course.
Cheers,
FJP
