Capturing mouse is not a problem - see XGrabPointer. Reading any mouse
movements _ON THE EDGE_ of the window/display _IS_ the problem. The only way to
do that is:
1. Warp the mouse
2. Read mouse events directly from the device. Be it xevents from XInput (via
the X server - the right way), the evdev events from the device itself. Or some
other source of events (dunno what else is left).

This bug is about consequence of doing 1) because 2) is not available (X server
won't allow to open primary pointer device as an XInput device) or is the wrong
way to do it (reading evdev events directly from the mouse device).
