Description David Ludwig 2015-12-31 06:29:59 UTC 
The following bug was observed via an SDL2-based UWP (Windows 10's flavor of WinRT) app, one using the latest version of SDL2 on hg.libsdl.org/SDL, as of this writing.  (https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/c8fd9b498b67)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. launch an SDL2 UWP app into windowed-mode
2. make the app go fullscreen
3. observe that the mouse cursor is the standard, Windows, arrow cursor
4. alt-tab to a different Windows app
5. alt-tab back into the SDL2 UWP app

(Often) Observed Result:
The mouse cursor switches to Windows' 'wait' cursor, which as of this writing, is a spinning, blue circle.  This cursor does not switch away to the arrow, not until the app is brought out of fullscreen mode, or control is switched to another app.

Expected Result:
The mouse cursor is, upon resuming the app, Windows' arrow cursor.
