jchv has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts: == [css-ui] Proposal: new `cursor` value `all-resize` == https://www.w3.org/TR/css-ui-3/#propdef-cursor I am proposing the addition of a new `cursor` value `all-resize`. The CSS `cursor` spec does a good job enumerating a common set of cursors that cover the needs of most software with reasonable names. As such, the CSS `cursor` names have been mostly adopted in the free software desktop world, e.g. in GTK's own cursor names, and in the recent Wayland cursor-shape-v1. However, it appears that there is no specific cursor that covers the use case of a cursor that is for generally moving or resizing in all directions at once. This often looks like a combination of `ns-resize` and `ew-resize`:  This cursor is often used by image editing software to represent translation of a compositing layer. This is distinct from `all-scroll`, traditionally called `fleur` in Xcursor themes as far as I can tell, which usually looks something like this:  On some platforms, e.g. Apple computers, there appears to be no distinction, and the `all-scroll` cursor and `all-resize` cursor would likely map to the same system cursor. This doesn't seem to be a problem, because there are already cases where browsers map multiple `cursor` values to the same OS cursor. I apologize if I have filed this issue incorrectly, please let me know and I'll do my best to make it correct. Thanks for your consideration.
