Move cursor to the center of the screen on reappearing
Feature idea: when the mouse is moved and the cursor appears, place it in the middle of the screen so the user always knows where it will be.
In principle that sounds OK to me, though personally I'd find that more annoying than helpful. However, I think this would require pulling in RandR to deal with multiple outputs since I assume "center" should refer to the center of the output on which the pointer currently is.
I'm not entirely convinced that this is worth adding such a dependency. Another approach could be just exposing a way to react to cursor hide / show, but not implement the cursor warp directly. This requires more thought, though.
