I don't fully grok how this makes things better.  This seems like a 
nasty little hack too.  When you leave the window, the mouse disappears 
into one side of the screen, and when you come back, you have to move to 
where ever you were previously.

I understand how this could be useful with -no-grab, but this would 
defeat the sort of behavior that I commonly rely on when using grab 
(ungrab with a mouse in a convenient place, then come back and click on 
a button).

What's the user experience you are aiming for here?
