There are two Beryl/Compiz SoC projects. I'll be working on zoom,
at-spi magic and hopefully more will be implemented.

Following the cursor is the main part of my project with regards to SoC.

Exposing the control of the zoom plugin to dbus, is also part of the
project, and should be fairly straight forward.

I belive you can allready zoom the mouse pointer, though it is
optional, and I seem to remember some issues with it.

There'll also be focus-following, which is fairly trivial to
implement, since Compiz allready has to track focus, being a window
manager and all that.
