Yeah, I agree -- and having a translucent left pointer is my current 
compromise :-).  But, I'm not sure the whole world will agree, so the 
question remains that if applications do use reversed pointers, we need to 
decide if those should be part of the standard set, and if so, what the 
semantic name and description of them should be.
