"There’s just nothing out there that quite lets you do multiple mouse cursors at the same time" Certainly there is quite something out there since 2010 which does exactly that: http://www.multimouse.com

In context, that was a comparison to other screen sharing apps. Multimouse is more like synergy+multiple mice

Does it have multiple cursors for typing? If so how is that implemented? P.S. Also how is dragging implemented with two mice? (Just clicking is easy, you just have one hidden mouse that you make jump about when anyone clicks)

It doesn't have multiple cursors for typing yet, and with drag, the other mouse is locked out for the duration of the drag. It works surprisingly well.
