* Tweaked the thumbsize of the pointing hand cursors.
* Repurposed the FollowLink cursor as CreateLink cursor.
* Created a new FollowLink cursor based on a design by Justin Stressman, thanks!

It compiles and I proof-read the commit, otherwise I didn't test, yet.

# e59dc33e 07-Mar-2010 Stephan Aßmus <superstippi@gmx.de>

* Added BCursorID enumeration in App Kit's Cursor.h and new constructor which
takes such an id.
* Reused the existing mechanism to to have hardcoded tokens for the system
cursors, i.e. removed cursor_which enumeration from ServerProtocol.h and
used BCursorID where cursor_which was previously used.
* Reworked CursorManager.h and CursorSet.h accordingly and removed some methods
that where intended to replace system cursors with client cursors, since
those would break the reference counting and forget to maintain the cursor
list.
* Replaced the cursors in CursorData.h/cpp with the new ones I just designed.
* Removed HaikuSystemCursor.h and HaikuLogo.h from the source, as those are/were
no longer used.

I hope I will not get too much beating for this one... :-) I know the new
default cursor is slightly larger, but I believe the old one was just too small.
Also I noticed that the cursor may be slightly too dark, at least the old one
seems noticeably brighter when compared side by side (the new one has a slight
gradient). That is something I may correct at least. Otherwise I hope nothing
is broken, I've tested in QEMU and so far everything works as intended.

# c6f9f65d 03-Jan-2007 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

At least temporary fix for the Deskbar not updating additional items (unless you resize it).
The problem was that the view's screen clipping was not updated if its frame did not change
because of a resized parent - but that might be needed if the new parent frame reveals a new
portion of that view.
I added a TODO so that if there is a way to test for this case, we only need to invalidate
the clipping if really needed. For now, we always do it.

# 588259b6 26-Feb-2006 Stephan Aßmus <superstippi@gmx.de>

various changes to handling custom cursors:
* all cursors owned by a team are visually different,
or (iaw) an already existing cursor is reused when
it is set by the client again
* changed various occurances of cursor data from "int8*"
to "uint8*"
* ServerCursors also remember the R5 data from which
they were created
* the reference counting and destruction of
ServerCursors changed: The cursor knows it is attached
to a CursorManager and one can simply use
ServerCursor::Acquire() and Release() and the reference
counting and everything is being taken care of
* destroying a ViewLayer will now correctly release a set
ServerCursor
* fixed a race condition when setting a cursor through
BView::SetViewCursor(): If the client code looks like this:

BCursor cursor(cursorData);
someView->SetViewCursor(&cursor, false);

there is a relatively high chance the BCursor destructor
told the ServerApp thread to destroy the cursor before
the ServerWindow thread got to "acquire" the cursor for
use by the view layer. The very same problem is likely the
reason that SetViewCursor works to unreliably on R5, even
when the "sync" flag is set to "true" (although it should
theoretically work in that case).

all these fixes make WonderBrush work fine again with the
new support of custom cursors.... coded by axeld and myself
(the joys of pair programming :-)

# 195e980e 05-Feb-2006 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

* Cursors are now reference counted, so it shouldn't be possible anymore
to delete them accidently :)
* You should no longer call HWInterface::SetCursor(), but the new Desktop::SetCursor()
if you need to change the cursor.

# aa1f5437 05-Feb-2006 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

Some work on cursors:
* Fixed a myriad of bugs all over the place, ranging from locking errors to
deleting objects that don't belong to the one deleting them (hello HWInterface!)
* Almost all ServerWindow cursor stuff was broken; I've replaced all commands
to set a cursor with a single one AS_SET_CURSOR.
* Renamed some cursor commands.
* Changed the (broken) way ServerApp::fAppCursor was maintained - the application
cursor is now NULL as long as possible.
* Removed superfluous ServerCursor app signature stuff.
* The BApplication will no longer duplicate the default/I-beam cursors, it will
just reuse the default ones which now have fixed tokens.
* As a result, changing the cursor is now working as expected, closing bug #102.
* Rewrote Cursor.h, renamed private members to match our style guide.
* Minor cleanup.

What's still left to be done is reference counting the cursor objects to make them
work right and reliable.

# be05d56c 14-Nov-2005 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

* the app_server now uses a global token space - this should later be changed to
have different token spaces depending on the scope of its objects.
* removed TokenHandler - we're now using BTokenSpace instead.
* removed unused IPoint.cpp - if we ever need it again, it can still easily be
resurrected from the dead.
* some cleanup.

# 22137825 17-Jul-2005 Michael Lotz <mmlr@mlotz.ch>

All cursor related changes:

* Moved setting the default cursor from ServerScreen to Desktop
* Getting the default cursor is now done using the CursorManager
* Removed outdated setcursor from SysCursor.cpp (we have a new implementation by now)
* Renamed SysCursor.cpp to CursorSet.cpp as that's what it is
* Moved headers/private/app/SysCursor.h to headers/private/servers/app/CursorSet.h
* Removed some unneeded header includes along the way

There remains {set|get}_syscursor now in CursorSet.cpp. Serverside for these are not implemented
and they are obvious hacks. Do we need to keep them?
Also this commit _would_ break Appearance, but 1) all the related code is currently commented out
with the comment "cursor set management belongs in another app" and 2) it is already broken
because of ColorSet.
