Hide Mouse Cursor While Typing #4461

Describe the feature

Sometimes the mouse cursor obscures the text I am editing. Some other IDEs will temporarily hide the mouse cursor when you begin typing & I think it would be nice to have in Zed!

If applicable, add mockups / screenshots to help present your vision of the feature

Xcode is a good example of this feature

Is this planned? Constantly moving the cursor out of the way is not a great experience.

This is definitely one of those rough edges that leaves a mark. Having moved from VSCode, it took me ages to figure out that when you start typing, the mouse cursor is hidden until you move it. It's just The Right Thing To Do - I've placed the cursor there, now get the hell out of the way so I can see what I'm doing.

I submitted PR for this issue. But I have only macOS device.

Can someone implement this feature for Windows and Linux ?
