Ok, I added this to a new tab the current mouse settings panel, and
changed a bunch of stuff.  I like how you used GtkIconView, but that's
GTK 2.6 only, so, I got rid of that and did something less fun.  When
GTK 2.8 comes out, it should support changing cursor themes on the fly
without restarting the session.

This also requires an extra line in your xinitrc, so to make this work
properly, you also need to merge in xfce-utils/scripts/xinitrc from SVN
trunk.

Let me know how this works for everyone...
