Actually, this is a pretty logical idea, one I have used for 15+ years  on 
another platform, a platform that shall remain nameless but whose initials 
are A.M.I.G.A..  :-)

The prefs of those systems (since circa 1987) let users freely edit their 
cursor graphics, including the "hot point" pixel.  I quickly put the feature 
to use by making the mouse pointer arrow  face the same direction that 
english reads, so that the pointer graphics didn't obstruct the text of my 
menus or buttons

It has nothing to do with whether you are right handed or left handed or 
ambidexterous or a cross-mouser like me (a right handed person who prefers 
running the GUI with the left hand). Having the cursor point to the left is 
simply more logical and practical when the interface language reads from the 
left.
