Interesting.  I used to have the same opinion about warping the pointer,
until I used a 386i for a while.  After a couple of days getting used to
it, I really came to like the way the pointer warps to the appropriate
button when a confirmation box pops up then warps back when you're done
with the transient dialog.  I had the same experience with stay-up menus;
after getting over the novelty, I decided I liked them quite a lot.  (Of
course, my SunView root menu is 8 items long by 5 layers deep...)

I still find it evil to warp the pointer into windows when you open them,
though -- for me, pointer warp only works when your attention is required
somewhere else for just a minute, then you return to what you were doing.
