Maybe we had better implement a new ioctl and use vidcontrol to set up
mouse char codes.
sysctl is to tweak the kernel behavior. I would rather hesitate to
use it to customize device drivers, unless it has something to do with
kernel state/behavior and/or security; this is not the case with
SC_MOUSE_CHAR.

Hmmm. I would surprise people...
