I am still working on 'simple' touchscreen support. Based on current
git HEAD I added an option in xfce4-settings to hide mouse cursor.
This option can be set for each pointer device. As soon as an event
(Move/ButtonPressed) is thrown from a pointer device, the cursor
visibility is updated. The code needs some cleanup, the GUI setting
for this is TBD but I am optimistic to get that done until next week.
After further tests I will create a public git-repo for review.

Would that have the chance to land in next release?
