If you give me a branch I can merge with the OutputClass bits
backported, that'd be great. I don't have a particularly pressing need
for it so I'm not likely to get to that one myself.

I've merged this change to 1.19.x. I'd like to fix the animated cursor
regression (see "Restore monitoring of animated cursors" patch series)
and then release .7, so any review or additional cherry pick
suggestions would be appreciated.
