Title:
  hideous mouse cursor when hovering over hyperlinks.

Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:

  1. On the desktop (unity7, x11), launch any qml app that is capable of
  displaying hyperlinks (friends-app, webbrowser-app, webapps-container,
  etc).

  2. Mouse over any hyperlink.

  3. Observe that it is a 2-bit icon that should have died in the
  1980's.

  Where is this cursor coming from? It should really be updated to
  something more modern looking, especially as we converge towards
  qml/unity8 on the desktop.

  (we want to make webapps-container the default webapps experience in
  14.04 desktop, but this bug makes the experience very ugly)
