Per a discussion in #webkit, WebKit should probably be sending native events to plugins for mouse moves using "adjustCursorEvent" for the "what" field of the EventRecord.

Created attachment 16171 [details] fix v1.0 Something like this... I didn't heavily test this, and that's probably hard to do given that plugins aren't used to getting the events so far.

This would be good in theory if not for Cocoa's totally messed up mouse move system. You can't rely on the method, since I believe it is responder-chain based.

Comment on attachment 16171 [details] fix v1.0 So this isn't going to work so easily because mouseMoved: behavior is silly.

The attached patch was trying to modify "WebBaseNetscapePluginView.mm", which is now removed due to NPAPI plugins and Webkit Plugin support being gone. Commit - https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/commit/043ef2367e62a2cc7e9facb1bdc42b0867b8dd6 Can this be marked as "RESOLVED WONTFIX"? Thanks!
