Cursor Not Changing

[Paul Dupuis]

I find it interesting that this bug is listed as "AWAITING _MERGE", as 
well as a number of other bugs in that same state.

If I recall, that means the code to fix it has been written and just 
need to be built and possibly tested.

As I also seem to recall LiveCode spent a lot of time developing 
automated testing routines, and an automated build process, I DO have to 
wonder why they do not just release ONE more maintenance release of 
LiveCode Classic with any and all AWAITING _MERGE fixes rolled in.

It seems like a waste of human resources for someone to have spent the 
time fixing the code and not roll it into one last build and release.
