Hey Hyatt, any chance of getting to this before 1.0? I could use it for a couple of menu bugs that I have outstanding.

Wait, maybe I could do this myself. I should be able to just keep track of this on NS_MOUSE_MOVE in nsEventStateManager, and expose a function in nsIEventStateManager. Sound like a plan?
Do we need a mouse pointer setter as well? There is a bug 76053 - snap pointer to default button in dialog, although that is currently for Windows only.

This is a mass change. Every comment has "assigned-to-new" in it. I didn't look through the bugs, so I'm sorry if I change a bug which shouldn't be changed. But I guess these bugs are just bugs that were once assigned and people forgot to change the Status back when unassigning.
