Rejected, sorry.

1.10 “Control mouse pointer” block
The block below, and others, could be used to hide the mouse pointer or change the way the mouse pointer looks in a project. These blocks, however, do not significantly change the types of projects that can be created with Scratch; for more information, see this post. In addition, they may cause confusion to users, wondering where the mouse pointer went. A feature to control the mouse pointer, including freezing it or preventing it from leaving the project screen, poses similar confusing problems.

@-Exphire- is not a member of the Scratch Team (and neither am I), but what they're saying is that a ‘hide/show mouse cursor’ block is a suggestion which the Scratch Team has seen before, thought about, and decided not to implement to Scratch. The quote which they obtained can be found in this topic, under §1.10.

Sorry to disappoint.
Thank you for sharing your ideas, though — keep thinking of new ways to make Scratch a better place.
