Description
MPX is a real "wow" feature that can bring attention to Ubuntu and Linux. However, very few Ubuntu users can follow the instructions to install/configure MPX, though many have a strong desire to do so.

Search for MPX on Ubuntu forums to see people wishing for an MPX tutorial.

Make a MPX installation/configuration guide or tutorial that moderate-beginners can follow to get multiple cursors working.

As MPX is integrated into the next X.org version, an installation howto is not needed and configuration should wait till it's final.

And what is MPX?

Would be of zero use to me. Not to mention absolute zero 'wow'.

MPX is Multiple Pointer X11. Its main application these days would probably be multitouch type applications
