189580 - mouse cursor does not change on keyboard navigation

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 46388

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212

When putting the mouse cursor above a link it changes from an arrow to a hand.
But when scrolling the page underneath the mouse pointer, using the up and down
keys, the mouse cursor does not change back into an arrow when it is moved off
the link.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Put the mouse cursor over a link and watch it change into a hand
2. Use the up/down keys to scroll the page so that the mouse cursor is no longer
over a link

Actual Results:  
The mouse cursor remains a hand as if it is still above a link.

Expected Results:  
When moving off the link the mouse cursor should change from hand into an arrow.

The other way round (placing the cursor above a piece of text and then using the
up/down to move it over a link) also doesn't work.

I know this is a very small thing, but it would be nice if it was fixed.
