[Bf-committers] Patch to add "Show/hide 3D Cursor" functionality

[Roberto Roch]

The 'Only Render' option in the Display panels hides the cursor, among
other unnecessary things for sculpting. Can the mode change just activate
this option?

The drawback to this is that it's not easy to see which object is selected.
