Bug Description
When I press alt-tab on the keyboard (getting the brand new alt-tab prompt), my mouse cursor disappears and the mouse becomes unusable for as long as the prompt is visible (no click, no movement, no nothing). This is highly confusing - I expect the mouse to be there and visible so I can click application icons inside the alt-tab prompt.
I do that regularly when I have multiple (> 5) applications open, since alt-tab + mouse click is faster than tab-cycling through all icons one by one.

Mouse clicking to click on application icons isn't implemented yet, so
at the moment we're disabling all mouse input.
