rx-drawn cursor is frozen and system cursor is invisible when over an inactive rx window

On rx 0.4.0, if rx loses focus, all window updates will stop, which makes sense as a way to avoid waste... but the cursor drawn by rx also freezes.
It seems reasonable that, when rx loses window focus, it should temporarily undo "hide the system cursor while over this window so we can draw our own".
Ah interesting. Since I use a tiling window manager which focuses the window on hover, I haven't seen this happen. So the problem is that even though the rx window is inactive, it still hides the system cursor when it is above the window.
I've attempted a fix in the fix/issue-80 branch. Could you try it out?
Sure. I was too busy today, but I'll try to fit it in tomorrow.
It's not perfect, but it's a good enough fix for me.
(It has the same problem that causes accessibility issues for people with visual impairment with Snaps on Ubuntu... it ignores the user's system cursor theme, so my cursor changes from black with a white border to white with a black border when it crosses into an inactive fix/issue-80 window.)
Great. I'm unlikely to have a solution for the other problem that works cross-platform.
