Then you could have a sprite following it.

forever
    hide mouse-pointer :: sensing
end

What would that achieve? The pointer would still appear when you moved it off the project.

Just posting that you don't care either way is spam.

Oh, for the love of–

Anyways, I'm on the fence. I mean, it would be a nice touch, and I don't really see any ways it could go wrong, and yes, I thought about the possibility of “malicious” Scratchers making the mouse invisible – oh, how positively unbearable that would be *removes mouse from project area* – but I'm not sure how the Scratch Team would be able to make it “fit” into the Scratch editor.

I mean that I like it, but Scratch could also do equally as well without it. If I didn't care, would I even care to post?

1. The meaning of the word “indifferent” is that you are apathetic; that you don't care. If what you're saying is true, then you're essentially using “cat” to mean “apple”. You need to find a different way to express your sentiments.
2. If it's a net bonus, no matter how small, Scratch cannot do “equally as well” without it.

Google “indifferent”. Definition 2 and 3.

Okay then, but it's very misleading. “Indifferent” in the context of your posts is an objective statement: "I think this suggestion is indifferent“, but in the context of ”I support this suggestion“, ”I have no support for this suggestion“, etc. would be taken as meaning, ”I am indifferent to this suggestion".

So it would be better to say “I am indifferent to this suggestion” as opposed to “Indifferent”?

…No. What you're looking for is the first one. But I don't know anyone who says that kind of thing.

Enough about indifferent…
seriously.
TheHockeyist can say whatever he wants.

Everyone has the theoretical ability to say whatever they want, but that doesn't mean that other people can't say anything in response. In my case, I believed TheHockeyist had a habit of getting on suggestion threads and saying that he didn't care whether or not they were implemented, which does not contribute one iota to the discussion of the merits and demerits of a suggestion. We call such a post “spam”. It turns out, as we pretty much finished discussing before you posted, that TheHockeyist meant to say that he liked the idea, but did not consider it necessary that Scratch implement it*, but this fact was lost in transmission through imprecise usage of language. So yeah, I (and imadrainpipe) thought it was spam, but it wasn't. To me at least.

*While it's not as bad as what I thought it was, I still do not consider TheHockeyist's post to be a meaningful contribution, but I recognize that other people place a higher value on a flat statement of one's opinion than I do, so that's neither here nor there in terms of relevance.
