I think its completely irrelevant how windows does it, it can read mouse
movement directly from the driver.
Wine however, has to take what X gives us, or get its own mouse driver.
Thats not that easy, as far as I know, because we would have to override X's
driver somehow.
The best way would be to get mouse messages from X pretty much, so we know the
mouse was moved, even if absolute cursor position did not change.

In window mode for example, the mouse could still leave the window and it could
loose focus, that needs some thinking...

But until there is no direct way to get mouse events from X, we cant do
anything on this issue.

If I got anything wrong, please corret me ;)
