Rebol doesn't support mouse cursor change. I think that it is not
possible to introduce truly multiplatform solution here, but maybe at
least partly. I suggested it several times already and RT folks told me
that something like that is planned.
One of my suggestion was at least capability of hiding/replacing mouse
cursor by set of two nested faces - one holding the whole image - e.g.
hand, inner one representing sensing area, e.g. finger ....
Let's see what future will bring, but if RT wants Rebol to be used by
kiosk systems, they should probably allow us to hide/change/replace
mouse pointer ....
