For that one the GUI code seems broken, if mouse_time is 0 by pure
chance the mouse pointer seems to get stuck on.

"start" seems like a bad name, rather "show", "movement", "reset" or something
like that would fit better IMO.
And "show" is a bit confusing as well, maybe "handle" or such instead?

Since I think they are no more used anywhere else,
mouse_waiting_hide and mouse_timer variables should be moved into
this function.

Just 0/1 is better than VO_TRUE/VO_FALSE, especially for code that will
be used from the GUI.
Otherwise that seems like a fine solution to me...
