Bug Description

Binary package hint: totem

This is a very low priority feature-request like bug. Because I can imagine it being fixed easily, it might be worth mentioning.

When the user gets an error report or message box from totem, when totem is in full screen mode, the cursor will stay hidden except for on the popup itself. The user can solve this problem by simply pressing space or blindly searching for the center of the screen with the mouse, because the cursor will show up on the popup itself.

To reproduce:
1) Open a movie in totem
2) Play the movie
3) Move/remove the movie from it's location
4) Put totem in fullscreen mode (press F)
5) Wait until the controls have vanisched (don't move the mouse for long enough)
6) Wait for the end of the movie.

What happens: At the end of the movie, totem will try to open the first file in the playlist (that same movie) but it has been moved (step 3) and will produce an error telling you totem can't find the movie. When this message pops up, the mouse cursor is not visible.

Expected result: the mouse cursor would become visible again to allow you to use that to press the "OK" button.

An easier way to reproduce (on my system)

* open totem
* hit 'f' to go to full screen
* right click with the mouse and move away from the popup
