If the pointer is over the terminal window then hide it on any non-control keydown event, and restore it on the next mousemove event. But only when SystemParametersInfo(SPI_GETMOUSEVANISH) == true.

This is an excellent feature request. It might also be tied up with the cursor visibility work in #5028. I’ll mark this one Help Wanted: if you want to work on it, feel free!
