1.XOR is the one I like the most, it looks good and is precise in any case.
2.Color outline looks much better than I though, but there are still 
cases where it cause problems.When outline is the only cursor type:
- you can lose your cursor on big surfaces of the same color (it's not 
good to be an adept of Fauvism these days :p).
- it's harder to extend that big surface (for example, adding an 
irregular 3 pixels border around it).
3.B&W is the one I like the less. It doesn't look like it is an overlay, 
probably because the outside line is not transparent enough.
