That's the case. Dropping input devices from xorg.conf may be enough to
get hotplug working. Then, you need to add a line like

<merge key="input.x11_options.CorePointer" type="string">0</merge>

in your hal fdi's to devices you want not move the cursor. You can also
disable them completely but I'm unsure how.
