Description:
The mouse cursor retains the last style encountered when tabbing between fields in the Foreign Keys tab.

How to repeat:
Open the Table Editor.
Select the Foreign Keys tab.
Place the cursor into the Foreign Key Name field and enter a value.
Before leaving the field, move the mouse cursor over to a window resize bar (or any other place where the mouse cursor will change to something distinctive).
While the mouse cursor is displaying something other than an I bar or pointer, press the TAB key to move to the Referenced Table drop-down.
Move the cursor to the drop-down.
Observe that the drop-down interaction occurs with an inappropriate cursor style.

Suggested fix:
The cursor should be updated by the underlying active object.

Verified just as described.

The mouse cursor is mostly controlled by the operating system. In order to fix this we would have to implement cursor handling for all control classes (some we can't even).
