Log Message:
-----------
Try to improve the cursor readout and status message.
This could be done better with changes to the backends.
The status (pan/zoom etc) should be indicated via the
state of the buttons, e.g. using radio buttons, rather
than by printing text.  The readout should be positioned
to minimize jumping around of the text.
