> I wonder if it might be better to change x_set_mouse_color to check some new field “f->tooltip_p” that makes it define just one cursor.  (The arrow we use for non-text areas, or the vertical-bar xterm cursor we use for text?)

Fine, let's do it this way.  Can you prepare a patch along these
lines?

> Of course, there’s also the little matter of making the cursor-setting actually work.  Until (unless?) that happens, we might as well disable it for everyone.  I can check that in if you'd like.

Please do, and thanks.
