It's just transparent but it's here . I think it depend of the video driver.
On my config I have two screen in non xinerama mode (One server per head, but the mouse
can go on two screen) it give this :

 driver    mode   mouse can go on th other head
 x11         fs         Yes
                vm       No

 xv           fs         Yes
                vm       Don't work (windowed)

 sdl           fs         No
                 vm       No

But I think the SDL lib grab the pointer when you request a fullscreen mode.
Looking at the code I can tell that the x11 driver grab the mouse in vm. And
the xv driver don't seem to grab it.
