This is the server-side for the pointer-barrier patches, proposed as XI 2.3.<br>
It adds events for pointer barriers (when the pointer hits vs leaves the<br>
arrier) and the ability to release a pointer across. I hereby propose this<br>
for the 1.14 release.<br>

KNOWN BROKEN: events/releases in the MPX case, though it works fine if the<br>
barrier doesn't apply to more than one device at a time.<br>
- releases currently ignore the device id<br>
- too many leave events may be sent if a barrier applies to multiple<br>
  devices<br>
I've got patches here that fix this, but they're not quite finished yet.<br>
Either way, that's a narrow use-case and it will be fixed before the<br>
release.<br></blockquote><div><br>Reviewed-by: Jasper St. Pierre <<a href="mailto:jstpierre@mecheye.net">jstpierre@mecheye.net</a>><br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

Many thanks to Jasper St. Pierre, who did most of the legwork here. And of<br>
course Chris Halse-Rogers who started with this feature quite a while ago.<br>
