Mouse pointer should hide when the user enters text into text input fields, just like GTK+ does with GtkEntry and GtkTextView widgets.

I'm not sure this behavior should be a given. Perhaps it's more important to follow the approach of other browsers here.

RESOLVED WONTFIX or do we actually want this?

I think it's a bug that we don't match GTK. There's no compatibility risk, so why not?

Note the cursor should only be hidden if it's actually within the bounds of the text area that has input focus, and only after a key has been pressed.
