#5997: Fullscreen hides mouse

Comment(by stippi):
WebPositive indeed hides the cursor on puspose. I think it's probably
buggy and does not check if it's still the current workspace. In fact, I
think hiding the cursor makes a lot of sense, even if not in fullscreen
mode. WebPositive is an app for reading something, as such the cursor is
in the way by definition, full screen or not. So why not automatically
hide it after a timeout, and show it as soon as you move the mouse to
click on something (like it does now)? WonderBrush on the other hand is
for manipulating something, mostly with the cursor, so it's a completely
different situation. I have often clicked into a text field in WebPositive
and I always have to move the cursor out of the way because it covers
where I want to type. The cursor should probably immediately hide when you
press a key, and otherwise just auto-hide after a timeout.
