global way to change cursor

[Sarah Reichelt]

As Richard has said, you can use the defaultCursor property, but I tend 
to use the commands as you have used them, but with "lock cursor" 
before I change to a non-standard cursor and "unlock cursor" when I'm 
finished. This stops Rev automatically resetting the default cursor 
whenever it thinks it should.

Cheers,
Sarah
