I am trying to document the intent of the line. It was not obvious to me
why one error would turn mouse capture off (though many would argue that
I only have half a brain). Maybe some bad Xserver returns NULL when you
move the cursor off the screen and continues to work later. I just
wanted to document the decision that was made. I am happy to take it out
if it bugs. 

Thanks for your patience and help.

Brenden.
