Howdy Mr. Knight!

I suppose that the difference is that maybe you are using Xinerama, and 
I'm not using Xinerama.  Instead, I'm displaying a separate workspace 
on each display.

So, Konsole is dragging the mouse back to the original coordinates, but 
on a different display.  And that is because the mouse motion increment 
was greater than the width of the Konsole border.

So to solve this, you either need to catch the mouse before it actually 
moves off the display (that is, you know the delta and the mouse cursor 
hasn't yet been updated with the delta), or become aware of the display 
that contains the mouse (if you are going to twiddle with the mouse 
position).

A simpler option would be to allow the user to specify that the mouse 
cursor will not be jailed.  Then the effect won't happen.

Thank you.
