Are you trying to fix a lack in a video editing app without touching
the app itself, or are you looking for ideas on functionality to add
to an app with appropriate source code, etc.?

If the former, I'm wondering how you expect the app to recognize the
two cursors, how you expect to tell the app which is for what, etc.

If the latter, you might launch your copy of the gimp (or photoshop)
and check the cloning function to see one example of where an app
remembers one cursor location for use at another. (And other
suggestions have already been made.)
