Hi Carsten! I appreciate that you always take the time to respond to users
:)

> E has its own cursors that uses the efl/e theme
I know, I tried, I actually notice the "same behaviour". EFL mouse on some
apps, X mouse on other apps (I just tried, sublime uses E theme, chrome and
kde uses X theme)

I guess that is understandable, but would it be possible to have some
hints/idea/helps on how to define this for a consistent env? Again, I am
aware this is probably out of E's scope, but it _feels_ like as a DE you
actually should care. As I user, I _expect_ the DE to own the cursor theme
in one way on another.

Emphasis on the words that are probably the most debatable.
