Nice idea, but that only fixes half the problem.  When I replace the oblique
mouse cursor, the cursor associated with the mouse is never obliqued, which
is nice. However, the cursor that shows the text insertion point is still
obliqued, which is the bigger problem.  I took a brief look through FullWrite
but could not find any resource that seemed to correspond to an obliqued
text insertion marker.
