Bug description:
  On a high DPI screen (220 DPI) the mouse cursor is really tiny when
  hovering unity elements. There are various keys in dconf to change the
  cursor's scale factor or size. I've managed to change it in a way that
  it looks normal when inside application windows, but its still tiny
  when on unity elements.

  I think this should be set automatically by the scale factor setting
  in system settings.

  
  (Using unity 7.3.1+14.10.20140811-0ubuntu1)
