None other then the code itself that I am aware of

This was in the WIN32 code at one point, but that was with the
original 'C' GUI interface.
I don't have any idea of how to go about this with the current code
but IIRC all I did was use a few variables
mouse_timeout_val, mouse_timed_out and last_mouse_time
last_mouse_time was set whenever there was a mouse_event
and mouse_timed_out was set when current_time - mouse_timeout_val
was greater then last_mouse_time in the main loop.
something like
if( (current_time - mouse_timeout_val) > last_mouse_time)
{
TurnCursorOff();
/* mouse_timed_out = true; */
}
then at the start of guiMouseFunc()
if( mouse_timed_out )
{
TurnCursorOn();
}
Note I didn't and still don't know how to appropriately turn
the cursor on/off under 'X' hence this was #ifdef'd to only be
for WIN32.
However I guess one could just load a completely transparent
cursor as a kludge :-)

This would be useful for > things like a dedicated visual channel. This is soft-coded these days. In mice.xml, you can define a cursor image for each mode. You should be able to use "none" to specify an invisible image. Mappings for mouse buttons are likewise handled in that file, and of course you can set the mode property from elsewhere as well.
