I'm talking only about not grabbing the pointer in complex
functions. Argue as much as you want, it does not work because it
can not work reliably under X, for example because of the way
EnterNotify and LeaveNotify events work. If you don't like it,
all you can do is to delay function execution until the pointer
can be grabbed (i.e. loop forever in certain places). But - this
may generate a deadlock with applications that grab the pointer
and then expect that the window manager processes requests.

I spend much more time reading list mail carefully than you think
(and than I should spend, for that matter).
