I can follow your reasoning, but shouldn't the same apply to W3 mode,
Customize and even Gnus and VM? All of them represent "non-editor"
things in very much the same way, so your pointer changes look
gratuitous to me.

That is because cursors are frame parameters not buffer parameters.
They have no choice. If given the choice, some authors may like to
take advantage of it, much to some people's chagrin I'm sure. :)

Please don't. I'd like XEmacs to behave the same under all window
systems, as far as possible.
In that case, I shall just remove them all together as I don't have
access to all platforms that need supporting and they are unwanted
anyway.
