Just to open a whole other can of worms.  Why aren't crsr's supported
in 7.0 (Well yes you can use your own calls to GetCCursor() and
SetCCursor() in your apps but why not Finder/System?) If Apple has
decided on a standard color interface (wctbs, icl8s, etc etc) why
didn't they include the support for color cursors?  I would think that
they would want to support all colorization features.
