Description
-------

Setting the cursor to ArrowCursor when calling XGrabPointer() prevents the 
Screen savers from blanking the mouse cursor.

I don't know why this has been done in the first place, but I couldn't see any 
negative effect by setting it to None. Now the mouse cursor even changes to the 
IBeam again when over the password field, which I find more intuitive.

Testing
-------

Configure a Screen saver in systemsettings and wait for it to kick in (or lock 
the screen manually).
Previously (since 4.10) the mouse cursor stayed visible, now it is blanked like 
it was the case before 4.10.
Moving the mouse/pressing a key (to quit the Screen saver) makes the mouse 
cursor appear again as it should, regardless of whether the screen is locked or 
not.


Thanks,

Wolfgang Bauer
