I like to see dest go away in In order to do this, fb_imageblit has to support transparency (using a transparency bitmask). Userland apps will rarely have rectangular mouse cursor pointers. Also, it will need to support ROP's invert and copy. This will break fb_imageblit. Also, we have to double-buffer what's underneath the cursor.
