The mouse cursor, which has been hidden using Mouse.hide() in a Flash plugin,
does not reappear when exiting the window.  The mouse should reappear when the
mouse leaves the edge of the window.

This only occurs when the flash movie is full window, or has an edge with no
margin/padding/border against the window edge.

This may be a Flash bug, however Mac IE and Safari, both behave as expected.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Move mouse cursor into window.  Mouse cursor should disappear.
2.Mouse mouse out of window, preferably from the sides.
3.

Actual Results:  
Mouse cursor remains hidden.

Expected Results:  
Mouse cursor should have reappeared.

This problem also occurs in Chimera.

Although this bug doesn't handle the Cocoa part I'll dupe it against bug 325558 which should hopefully fix this issue on trunk soon.
