This indicates the need dor a system independant standard cursor format. The CSS specification could make a sugestion about it but is not the correct place to do so. So it calls for a draft for (web) icons. Having the support for cursors dropped for the reason "not all user agents do support the same icon format" is false. The support for (background)immages should be dropped for the same reason, just because it is possible for an author to use an image format only supported by 1 or a few user agents. Christian.
