Seamless mouse

Starting with version 0.8.1 QEMU can emulate a HID mouse (independent of real used mouse):

For this, the guest OS has to support USB and USB HID devices (e.g. >= Win98 SE).

The big advantage of this is that the mouse can now move seamlessly between host and guest. It isn't "caught" by host or guest, i.e. no Ctrl-Alt to toggle between mouse and keyboard grab any more. This behavior is already known from VMWARE using VMWARE tools.
