I would say this is a bug.

Currently, the dependencies function for getMouse is the idle loop.
This was probably a kluge for older players. In modern players you
can listen for mouse moves, and there is already a mouse listener
object for handling the mouse wheel. Clearly this same listener
could have an event for mouse motion, which should be what getMouse's
dependency is.

You can file a bug at http://www.openlaszlo.org/jira/
