Scroll mouse position along with window

I was thinking of ways to improve the experience of using Karousel. Currently, it's not really possible to use it with mouse focus (which is my preference) because the cursor stays in place as the window moves, so the next window will always end up under the mouse and trigger another activation.

Could we have an option to make the cursor stay in place relative to the window when scrolling? I think this would feel more natural even with click to activate.

Also would solve #28.

Hi, I'd love this as well, but it's not possible to move the cursor with the Kwin Scripting API.

But the API does support making DBUS calls. Maybe this could be exploited to move the cursor somehow.
I've found this Reddit thread where someone tried just that, but unfortunately couldn't achieve it.
