I still am not sure I understand you. Are you saying that when you specify `heuristic' for :mask, then the default is to choose one of the four corners? What happens when you do not specify any :mask attribute? Is that the case where the cursor fails to show? If so, then I understand; but until you confirm, I am not sure I understand. If I understand right, then this is a bug, as I previously said. i believe kim suggested something like showing a margin with the cursor color around such images when there is no such border, which i expect is a good for that remaining case. That would be bad, since it would change the geometry. What I think he proposed is to show the cursor over the outer parts of the image. That seems good for this case.
