The ability to change the Pointer's shape to something other than the i-beam shape
would be a very welcome addition. It can be quite difficult to find where the mouse "is" in a session.  So many times we hear "where's the mouse, I can't see it" when introducing people to the superior Cut-and-paste's we can do in our environment. I apologize that I am now
going to invoke some words about xterm here, but with "Xterm*pointerShape:right_ptr" 
it is quite evident where the mouse is in a corresponding xterm, vim "session", etc. 
Changing the "color" will be of some help, and I can see where that can be of use,
but changing the pointer's shape will help me immensely as I change over individuals and companies while employing konsole and KDE. (thanks, sorry if I'm too windy here).
