> Ah, sorry.  Yes, it seems to work okay, as far as I can tell, and cuts out 11 round trips.  With a remote display I’m able to move the mouse into the tooltip window for a few seconds before it goes away, and (at least on my display) it’s showing a basic black arrow pointer.

Is that black arrow mouse pointer different from what you see if the
call to x_set_mouse_color is retained?
