When using GNU Emacs 18.55 under X11, the cursor is only highlighted if
the mouse is in the Emacs window.  It should be highlighted whenever the
Emacs window has the keyboard focus, regardless of the location of the
mouse.  Those of us who use click-to-type window managers (no cracks,
please) like to move the cursor out of the selected window after
clicking, but this makes it hard to find the Emacs cursor.
