Meh, Xnest is even flakier than Xephyr. The mouse pointer keeps wanting to move windows instead of select buttons or menus or whatever... Very frustrating! And it doesn't even have a third axis (pressure) listed for its pointer. At least Xephyr taunts and teases me by offering a third axis in pressure-sensitive apps... but then ignoring it.

I contacted Xephyr's writer about this:

Not without modifying the source Im afraid. It shouldn't be too difficult however.
Hear that, coder-types? "It shouldn't be too difficult". Go and make it so!
