Torsten:

I guess I'd add a toggleCursor() mechanism to my components (or roll
my own containers and place it there).  Then you could just call that
method with an int parameter that simply means change to CursorX.

Or, you could add a defaultCuror property to the components yourself.

Or you could live with the cursor being wrong initially and use a
mouseEntered event on the text components to reset the cursor.
