Yep, that would be nice. You could implement it in the same way the
other GNOME properties are implemented (for example the options for 
the menus etc.). That way, all GNOME compliant apps would use the 
same cursor images.
And a GNOME compliant window-manager should also use these properties 
for the root-window.
