If your friend needs cursor/text tarcking, then the GNOME shell magnifier is likely the best option. GNOME Shell 3.16 will be in Wily, due for release in October, and I am pretty sure that has cursor/textt tracking. Its also in vivid's GNOME shell 3.14, but I am not sure whether 3.16 has improvements in that area or not, so it will need investigation.
