Steps to reproduce
When typing in windows terminal the mouse cursor hides. However if you move the mouse cursor and then type without waiting long enough, even if you don't move the mouse cursor at all any more, the mouse cursor instead hides, and then after a couple of seconds unhides itself.
Expected behavior:
Expected Behavior
Mouse cursor hides and stays hidden when you type.
Or (unlikely) if an earlier recent move is intended to prevent hiding, then just prevent hiding rather than hide/unhiding.
Actual Behavior
If you type after a recent mouse move, the cursor hides itself and then after a delay unhides itself, even if there was no mouse movement after the hide.
If you type after a less recent mouse move (the threshold seems to be > 1-2 seconds), things work correctly: the cursor hides and stays hidden.
