Pointing hand cursor style

[brendon-felix]

Was it an intentional design decision to not use CursorStyle::PointingHand for clickable components like buttons and switches? I generally prefer using it, so I've been finding myself adding .cursor_pointer() constantly. Note Zed tends to use it for most buttons, switches and other "button-like" components. In gpui-component I only see this cursor style used on link buttons.

Not a big deal to add that method in my code, but it becomes a big deal when there are inconsistencies between the components where I have this set (e.g. Button::new("btn").cursor_pointer()) and components that don't directly implement Styled (like SidebarMenuItem) and don't expose this styling option.

My suggestion is to add pointing hand cursor style to all button-like components that deserve it. It's a near-universal visual cue for clicking, and it feels painfully absent from this library.

No, we followed desktop applications cursor, the button should not have pointer style.
