I’m excited for my cursor to not get trapped in a window anymore.
On Wayland at least, u can completely disable pointer constraints. Thus, a game window freezes, it doesn’t lock your cursor in it.
With X11, the only solutions I found were basically recompiling the X11 code. Thus, I deal with one game window making my cursor disappear and frozen inside itself, affecting all other Xwayland windows.
