Basically, only the very tip of the mouse is required to be showing
according to the GUI. This means that when you move it to the far left
or top, it cannot go any further as this would hide the tip. Now if you
move it to the far right or bottom, it will pretty much disappear except
for that one line of pixels on the right or single pixel on the bottom.
