Is it possible to add motion blur on the cursor?

This would be possible, and more importantly pretty cool. But it would require the cursor to be drawn with custom shader, which I deem out of scope for this here plugin.

But thanks for the suggestion, will put it on my ideas-to-be-implemented-if-i-ever-have-too-much-time-list, together with things like cursor trails (#6).

ngl. with the stretch mode, it already look like it have motion blur. but ya motion blur would be pretty cool, and more visually satisfying

does this mean adding like outlines or shadows would also require implementing shaders?

Yes you're right, that would also require the use of a different/custom shader. Although I gotta admit, shadows would be pretty cool as the baked-in shadows of many cursor themes are incorrect as soon as the shape is rotated. But yeah, I think that's still out of scope for now.
