Hi,

for APPLICATION_MODAL dialogs, the Shell-DisplayOverlay is used to make windows below the dialog inaccessible.
As an additional indicator of this inaccessibility, I would like to define the wait cursor for the overlay. It seems that this theme property is not yet supported by RAP.
In Widget.apperances.js the cursor property is defaulted to "default" and in Shell.theme.xml the cursor property is not defined.
When I modify/add the respective lines in those two files, the CSS property seems to be evaluated correctly.

in Widget.appearances.js:
cursor : tv.getCssCursor( "Shell-DisplayOverlay", "cursor"),

In Shell.theme.xml:
<property name="cursor" description="Cursor for the overlay." />

Would it be possible to include this modification in a future release or are there specific reasons against this kind of modification.

Kind regards and thanks for the great job you are doing with the RAP platform.
