How does "the user is filling in a form" equate to "the mouse is over an
input element"? Those seem like two quite different and unrelated things.
I've watched a lot of people fill in forms, and quite often they will click
in an input element and then move the mouse out of the way so they can see
what they are typing. A few people (like me) will even fill in forms without
ever having the mouse near an input element, by using the Tab key to
navigate through the form.
I wonder if this might be closer to what you're looking for:
$('input').focus( function(){...} ).blur( function(){...} );
