Describe the bug

Here are the repro steps:

1.) Make sure you have at least one Launch Configuration set up. 2.) Launch warp 3.) From the window you just launched, select a Launch Configuration. 4.) Note that the cursor is visible in both windows. 5.) Close the original window that was opened. 6.) Note that the cursor in the second window launched using a Launch Configuration is no longer visible.

This is really quite annoying as there still does not seem to be the ability to have a "default" Launch Configuration. Therefore, you must launch warp and then launch your custom Launch Configuration. For now, if you want to see your cursor, you have no choice but to leave the "parent" window open.

Expected behavior

Two expected behaviors:

1.) The cursor should "never" disappear. 2.) Default launch configurations should be supported.
