I've disabled acceleration, and the problem persists. Unless there's 
some very well hidden option that doesn't react to xset or xinput.

But clearly that's not an option if the user has a tablet (or other 
absolute pointing device) and a touchpad (at least my touchpad). Even if 
the touchpad problem could be avoided by disabling acceleration, that's 
a pain for the user and makes the touchpad behave differently from what 
the user is used to.

What about adding this feature along with a registry key? The 
implementation is only a few lines and works great in my case.

Of course, this is not an essential feature, as the app works fine in 
real full-screen mode. So I won't press this any more.
