Thanks. I've tried NSTrackingArea, and it seems a clearer concept and
easier to use. However, there are still two problems I can't fix:
1. Setting cursor in initWithFrame: and awakeFromNib does not have
effect. So I can't set the initial cursor.
2. Setting cursor together with tracking areas renders the cursor
setting ineffective. I found this from my mouseUp action. With the
code handling tracking areas, [[NSCursor openHandCursor] set] did not
give me an openHandCursor, but an arrowCursor.
-(void)mouseUp:(NSEvent *)event
{
    dragging=NO;

    [self removeTrackingArea:trackingRect];
    self.trackingRect = [[[NSTrackingArea alloc] initWithRect:[self
calculatedItemBounds]

options:NSTrackingCursorUpdate | NSTrackingActiveInActiveApp
                                                        owner:self
                                                     userInfo:nil] autorelease];

    [self addTrackingArea:trackingRect];
    [[NSCursor openHandCursor] set];
}
