Keep in mind that the FB GUI also lacks a popup menu.

The mouse should be relatively easy to do, but I haven't the time for
the menu.

It might be more interesting to implement the menu in the DirectFB
GUI we discussed.

The FB GUI is primarily intended for embedded devices who run Gnash
all the time, mostly with a touch screen. Normally you don't
need/want a mouse pointer or menu in such an environment, but I agree
the GUI should at least support the mouse pointer if desired.
