Sending me towards the right path.
It looks like I could write a little script using some of xdotools built in tools for cursor coordinates, active window info and geometry etc that would be pretty useful. As a quick solution it could alert using notify-send on a key combination, although figuring out how to append the data to the cursor overlay would be even nicer.
