Sounds like a good idea, but when testing this stuff out, I can't really
find that Emacs reacts to pointerColor at all. I've tried different
toolkits, but the pointer stubbornly is black with a white outline no
matter what I do. The -mc parameter has no effect for me, either.
Anybody know what's going on? Perhaps Gnome Shell is overriding the
colours somehow?
