Webplayer hides mouse cursor on all browser tabs

If I have an open webplayer my mouse cursor won’t be visible in the screenspace the webplayer occupies on any other tab. Is this really a known issue? I found a post from 2007 claiming this was known and logged. Why is it still happening?

This is a pretty big issue as it makes playing and pausing a Unity game while doing something else impossible.

I’m using Windows 7 64-bit on my machines and this is happening in every major browser.

This is probably not the same bug that was discovered in 2007 although it may be very similar in appearance. This problem has been detected internally quite recently and the case has been logged (number 391044) and a developer assigned to it. It wasn’t possible to fix before 3.3 but it should be sorted in the next version.
