So not a Wayland issue, though it could still be a Qt issue.

There were not many changes between RC2 and RC3. Hardly any, in fact, 
unless there was a change in the Qt version, which I don't think there was.

That said, there have been some pretty significant changes to cursor 
behavior, so it's possible also that it's a LyX issue.
