verified, reproducable. running firefox through xmond reveals that it's
usually some order of:

<- MotionEvent [event=0xABCD]
-> ChangeWindowAttributes [link cursor]
-> TranslateCoordinates [0xABCD, 0, 0]
some more of the TC request, then some create pixmap/copy area/free pixmap
-> ChangeWindowAttributes [normal cursor]
-> TranslateCoordinates [0xABCD, 0, 0]

I have no idea why or what that is supposed to do. First one to bisect wins.
