Once I left the terminal opened for a while, I can notice that the terminal is not responsive to mouse events anymore, and the mouse pointer design keeps on horizontal movement mode (the pointer with two arrows, one to the left, the other to the right).
The mouse is useless in any button of the terminal (since buttons to child windows or alert boxes), though they all work correctly (when key-stroking at least).
I do not think I could give any more details (reproduction, for example), and I did my best to explain the error itself, but if any of you guys think you actually need more information, I will give it to you as well and fast as possible.
