Well, that had me laughing quite a bit. However, are you really sure
that the verb would be "to mouse over", rather than "to mouseover"? I
would suspect that the usage of that term as a verb has been grabbed
from maybe JavaScript or some GUI builder tool, and thus should be
verbified as the entire word that it is in its original usage.

Of course, one might consider it normal to seperate prepositions from
verb stems.
