Description
`yabai -m signal --add event=display_changed action='yabai -m window --focus mouse'`
this should technically work when cursor changes display and the command yabai -m window --focus mouse should run but doesn't work on mac. I have tried logging the event change and it does log when display changes, and even the command yabai -m window --focus mouse works separately but when combined together, it doesn't work. Any solutions or work around?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the signal command with event=display_changed and action='yabai -m window --focus mouse' on macOS, confirming that the event logs while the focus command works independently. Trace the display_changed signal handling and the window --focus mouse entry point; done means the combined command focuses the window under the cursor after the cursor changes displays, or the limitation and a workaround are documented.
