Comment 6 for bug 987647

This change has already been committed to the next release 0.9.8.

It is only designed to reflect the existing behaviour already present in the Ubuntu branch of compiz. However I partially agree -- if you're double clicking in expo then the pointer shouldn't change. It should only change if you start moving a window. But the move plugin suffers from the same kind of problem (changing the mouse pointer when it probably shouldn't). I have opened bug 1011084 to cover this.

If you want any different behaviour like making it configurable then please log a new bug for that.
