Given that you're working with a canvas, you're likely making a game - and I'd say this might be more possible than you think. You probably won't be able to use the actual mouse pointer itself - probably not an issue if you have some mouse graphic available - but could have a "virtual" mouse using this, taking MouseMove events and multiplying them by some fraction. Unfortunately, I think you'd have to do a lot of the research yourself!

This API is used for things like the Quake WebGL demos.

(To those worried about security: Don't worry, the API has the browser request permission from the user using a dropdown)
