Walter,

I have not replied because I am not clear on what "warping the pointer" 
means. I live in cwm and use nothing else on OpenBSD and on Dragonfly. 

The only annoying behavior that I find is when moving back and forth 
between desktops, cmw rarely puts you back to the last active window in 
that particular desktop. If that has anything to do with what you are 
trying to change, then I am all for it!
