I am styling my cursor to be "pointer" over certain areas of my site, namely a dynamic navigation that consists of shown and hidden ul and li elements. Even though I have specified #navigation { cursor: pointer; } for the entire section, as well as #navigation:hover { cursor: pointer; } and even adding * to make sure I am covering all children, the pointer still reverts to an arrow after clicking once. You have move the mouse away and back again to see the pointer.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. hover over the brown navigation on the left. see the pointer being generated by CSS
2. click on navigational element in same column. See cursor revert to arrow
3. move away and back to see pointer again
Actual Results:  
cursor loses pointer style after clicking

Expected Results:  
cursor should maintain pointer style since I am still hovering over section with applied css styling

I see the described behavior indeed with Firefox 3.0.7, but it is WFM with the latest trunk build on Windows XP.
