NPAPI does not pass messages of type MOUSEMOVE to the plugin.  As a result, there is no way for a plugin to know about mouse movements through NPAPI.  It is fully documented in NPAPI to receive these messages.

This happens when the mouse is inside or outside the plugin.  MOUSEENTER and MOUSELEAVE and button clicks are all correctly registered, just no MOUSEMOVE notification.

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
MOUSEMOVE events are not passed to Plugin when fired.

Expected Results:  
MOUSEMOVE events are passed to plugin when fired.

Firefox on Windows works correctly.
