bug#22873: Can we support multiple Cursors?

[Keith David Bershatsky <esq@lawlist.com>]

Thank you, Eli, for taking a look at the second draft patch.  I agree that the unrelated features need to be removed so that we can focus specifically on feature 22873.

I would like some of my unrelated custom features to be available in-house while I am implementing fake cursors, but do not yet know how to easily separate them when creating a patch.  Absent that git knowledge, I will be manually cutting out those unrelated features in the various source code files and then creating a new diff that is 22873 specific.

The next phase will be for me to track down how to convert color vector RGB (three float numbers) to something that Emacs for Windows can recognize.  Different colors for each fake cursor is already working in Emacs for OSX 10.6.8.  When that next phase is implemented, I will ensure that the third draft patch is exclusively feature 22873 specific.

Keith
