I have an application where I am using mouse movement within a window to 
control a cursor on another (graphics) display.  I use LeaveWindow
events to detect when the mouse has gone out of the window bounds and
then warp it back inside the window.  This works, but tends to be jittery,
etc.  Is there a better way to constrain mouse movements, that doesn't 
rely on interaction with the user program?
