[OpenIndiana-discuss] Mouse pointers - the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

It worked! Nice theme (Neutral Plus Inverted). Before login I can see 
black arrow pointer and wristwatch. After login - white arrow and the 
"please wait" pointer is nice, though not wristwatch. I am completely 
satisfied with the desktop now.

Thanks Guido!

To person(s) responsible for this - I suggest including the Neutral Plus 
Inverted mouse theme in the OI distribution (at least not as default).
