Howdy Mr. Knight!

If you would like to reproduce it, just swap the order of the monitors 
in xorg.conf.

That is, tell it that Screen 0 is right of Screen 1.

That should be sufficient to get the problem to appear.

The problem with the code would be that it not only needs to set the 
position of the mouse, but the display on which the mouse appears.

Without even making any changes to your configuration, move a copy of 
Konsole to the edge nearest your other display.

If while selecting, you drag the mouse quickly against that edge of the 
display, the mouse cursor will jump to the other display (even though 
on the visually correct side).

The point there is that the user has escaped from the global map by 
jumping to the next display.

So, also setting the display on which the mouse appears "if ( pos != 
oldpos )" will make the problem go away.

Thank you.
