Right, so you'd CGAssociateMouseAndCursorPosition(false) and then use CGWarpMouseCursorPosition or CGDisplayMouseCursorToPoint to move it where you want it to be, but clamped inside the rect. As long as you keep pumping the event loop separately that does this (as fast as possible) it shouldn't be perceptively different from an OS cursor.
