The current implementation of NewIO tracks mouse movements that may or may not be necessary and communicates these movements to the server. A simple fix for this would be an API for designating the motion sensitive areas of your display. Another mouse bug is in the Paint application demo. Currently all the mouse movements are tracked, but there isn't need for any sensitive areas unless the mouse is being clicked. The API could also support no mouse tracking unless a certain condition is met. The condition could be an "in bounds of [dimensions]" restriction, a "keypress" restriction, an "out of bounds of [dimension]" restriction, a "mouseclick" restriction, etc. etc.
