No, your call to decide whether speedbar should specify this stuff

I think it is not needed.
I'm perfectly happy to remove the cursor bindings for those situations
where they are non functional. However, my opinion for changing the
default cursors (when available) is that speedbar is not an editor.
Well, technically it's an editor, but it's trying to represent
non-editor things. Its a mutation of a tree widget or list. As such,
a text I beam is not applicable because there is no text to "edit". A
list box in Motif is full of text, but you get an arrow, not an
i-beam. I must say that changing the targeting cross hairs to a hand
is quite arbitrary, but the goal was to indicate visually that the
user is not in a normal editing window, but something different,
similar to a web-browser.
In the greater scheme of things it makes little difference, but every
little bit helps. :)
Anyway, I'll make the ms windows change for the next version based on
Andy's earlier technical information.
Thanks, and have fun
Eric
