I got a patch from someone which restarts kwin, and I will try and
update the cursor themes today with that and a few other improvements
(use kdialog under KDE, gdialog under GNOME, and if neither of them
exist in something else, fall back to gmessage - gmessage is messy but
available in main, then I can probably drop the Xdialog requirement)

Since apparently it takes a few seconds to restart kwin, it will be an
option *after* choosing the cursor, and thus you should at least be able
to see the cursor theme before applying.

Contributions for restarting other WMs would be appreciated.
