In Writer, the format painter cursor is obscured by the paint pot. For the
visually challenged (like me), this is indeed a challenge. I frequently paint
one character too many or too few. 

Solution: Move the paintpot away from the cursor.

In Draw, the situation is even worse. The arrow pointer annoyingly toggles to
the paint pot. When trying to point to a fine horizontal line, which may be
close to other lines, the pointer toggles back and forwards quickly, which is
extremely distracting. 

By experimentation, I've found that it's not even the position of the point of
the arrow that enables the painter - it's actually the position of the lowest
bit of paint that comes from the pot :)

Solution: Maintain the arrow visible at all times. Move the paint pot away from
the arrow.
