Subject: cygwin bug report: cursor reports interfere with DOS box scrollbar

The cygwin terminal mouse position reports (requested with 
ESC [ ? 1000h) interfere with the DOS box scrollbar:
When the display is scrolled down, position reports do not indicate 
the correct position on the screen but rather add the offset by 
which the display has been scrolled down.
On the other hand, cursor positioning (by ESC [ p ; p H) refers 
to the visible screen area.
So application-driven cursor control and terminal feedback of 
cursor position are inconsistent and the feedback is useless 
for the application.
