1. To tell if the mouse is inside a screen, use the (query-mouse)
function, and check the return values against the size of the screen.
Remember that (epoch::screen-height) and (epoch::screen-width) take an
optional screen argument, as does (query-mouse).

2. I don't think you can tell if the text cursor is visible, since
there is no way to determine X window stacking order from inside
Epoch.
