Rationale
The screen recording feature in Blender is really great, but it's not very effective when you can't keep track of where the mousepointer is located.

It needs a visible mousepointer, and would benefit even more with an optional highlighter for the visible mousepointer.

It's okay for very simple demonstrations, but even that becomes a chore to view while trying to figure out where the mousepointer is located.

Isn't that more the problem of your video grabber?
My ( osx ) blender shows the mousepointer, It even changes on context, so I'm not sure what this request is about.

On the other hand... a sprite with 3 buttons and keys pressed might be super handy for video tutorials.

Perhaps this is a Windows issue as I experience the same thing? When using screencasting in Blender the mouse cursor is not recorded.

This is about the screencast feature of Blender itself, and has nothing to do with the OS.

Since we don't draw an OpenGL cursor ourself the Blender made screencasts are missing the mouse cursor.
