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.
