I like glitzy effects, and I want the location of my mouse pointer shown with glitzy effects. However, I just need a visual cue to pinpoint its location once, not continuously. Having to hit a key to disable the visual cue slows me down and limits my productivity [admittedly not much, but some]. It would be good if Show Mouse had a one-shot mode. One idea is to have the emitters spiral inwards, with the radius going linearly from ${radius} to 0 in the time it it would take the emitters to move two full circles. (version: 1:0.7.8-0ubuntu4)
