  Well, I use the mouse for pretty much one thing, scrolling.  And when
  the pointer is warped into the wrong window, the mouse-wheel scrolls
  where I didn't expect it.  

  Unfortunately, there really isn't much Ratpoison can do w.r.t the way
  X gives mouse-scroll focus.  I think the best thing would be to warp
  to the lower right corner of the active program instead.
