Corey, are you talking about mouse pointer? For me it looks like usability problem. Can you point to the place in HIG or on usability-list@gnome.org discussion about this?
Comment 2 Corey Burger 2006-01-07 00:42:00 UTC 
Sadly the HIG does not mention this, but yes, I am talking about the mouse pointer. Nor can I see any usability discussion about it. I have raised it on the Usability list.
Comment 3 Nickolay V. Shmyrev 2006-01-11 16:36:17 UTC 
Thanks for doing this, Corey. It seems that usability people also have no opinion on this. But gtk really implements it for entry views. Probably gtkhtml in evolution for example in composer mode should hide pointer too. 

Returning to the question, I rather don't wont to have this feature. What do you think?
