What happened?

When using barrier, if I have a game running on the client system and move my cursor back over to the server system, the client system quickly centers the mouse to the middle of the client's screen. Unfortunately, if a game running on the client has a tooltip or something that is triggered by the mouse being in the center of the screen, it can obscure the view. (This inititally happened to me in Hearthstone, where there is frequently a large card tooltip triggered with the mouse in the center of the screen.)

It would be nice if it were possible to set the 'center' in the config to another location. For example, if you don't use a particular edge of the client's screen for edge transition, you could choose that location to avoid any obstruction, or even just somewhere that you know will never have a tooltip triggered.
