At last, after 2 years, I got the repro.

E17, ver 0.24.2

The glitch was: some times, I loose the mouse. Only happens when using 
monitors with different size, with a black zone in the X space.

The first minor glitch I found is that when I push the mouse up on 
center monitor, then, slide right or left, the mouse get stuck in the 
corner; this does not happen in the bottom corner (monitors are 
aligned). When monitors are aligned up, then the glitch happens at the 
bottom. Mouse hangs in the convex corners, not when there is linear 
continuity. But, this minor glitch is not really ennoying. Just move the 
mouse one pixel down, and you can go for work.

It also happens vertically on the right monitor, when sliding down along 
the left boder of monitor then down, but, not on the left monitor when 
going right then down. (not related with the presence of gkrellm).

The big bug: What happens more ennoyingly, is when the mouse disapears, 
and I just found how to repro. Approach the convex visible corner from 
the middle of the tall monitor, and attack the concave black corner 
right via the very edge pixel. Then, at this very specific place, the 
mouse can jump in the void, and disapear in the black zone.

I can repro the bug on the right convex corner, but it's harder to do.

The mouse also gets out of the void more easily by the right than the left.

I do have "shortcuts" associated with mouse being on top (set window 
full screen) or bottom (set light to max) of monitors.

Is there a shop for goodies ? I mean an official shop where a part of 
the payment goes to the fundation. Nearly 20y of use, it's time to buy a 
T-Shirt ... Yes I know I can upload an E logo to a random tshirt shop if 
there is no other way ...

BTW, after my Paypal Donation, I was redirected to 
http://enlightenment.fr/ which does not work (probably lacks www).
