I'm sorry; I didn't delve far enough into the source code to know 
precisely what you are suggesting and its effects.  My guess is that you 
are saying that when we have the cursor set to draw strokes (the pen 
cursor), the cursor won't be able to select an item?  I think that would 
solve the same problem that my patches do.  My patches are tied to the 
tool mode (i.e., freehand annotation), while your suggestion ties it to 
the type of cursor.  Am I understanding correctly?  How do you normally 
switch between NSCursorPointingDevice and NSPenPointingDeviceType (I'm 
not sure which tools correspond to those cursors)?

For me, it is easy to toggle the "Tool Mode" toolbar buttons between the 
Text tool (which allows me to select freehand annotations) and the 
freehand tool, if that is what you are asking.  I'm happy to experiment 
with patches as well.  I don't have any doubt that you have a cleaner 
and more elegant way to solve the same problems that my patches solve.

Thanks,

Jason
