Description

It would be nice to have the ability to change the style of the cursor (example) when hovering over certain elements in the OSC/third party OSCs. Specifically, I think the pointer style from the link would be nice.

Start by reviewing the OSC and third-party OSC implementations, then compare the requested behavior with the linked CSS cursor reference.
