This way, even with the cursor being invisible you could still get pop-ups displaying instrument information.
Then you could use it with your view controls too to scan your instruments: place cursor in the center of the screen, wait for it to disappear and then you can get a read-out of each instrument by looking at it, without having the cursor displaying in the center of your screen.

I have an idea that is the following: make an optional tiny dot in the center of the screen. When you place this dot with your view over an instrument, you get a pop-up label. The properties of this label, (position, color, transparency etc) would be user configurable.
I came to this idea after a workaround I am using now for knowing always where is the center of the screen when using trackir. I created a new info window, naked and with no info, which only has a title. In the title I put a small "+" and place it in the exact center of the screen. Useful for zooming in/out without losing reference.
