Thanks Mark, help me so much. :)

The problem is in the Bluetooth device address: The prefix (which
indicates the manufacturer) is different for your mouse. So the
workaround is add this line in the file
/usr/share/gnome-bluetooth/pin-code-database.xml (close to the Wedge
mouse entrance):
<device oui="28:18:78:" type="mouse" name="Microsoft Sculpt Comfort
Mouse" pin="0000"/>
Restart the system and try again to check if the problem persists. If
work well I will submit a patch for gnome-bluetooth.

Thanks for report this bug. :)

Bug description:
  [Impact] The patch makes Microsoft Wedge/Sculpt Touch mice stay connected.
  [Test Case] Get a Microsoft Wedge/Sculpt Touch mouse, pair it, restart session, watch it automatically re-pair.
  [Regression Potential] Little. The patched piece of XML is only relevant to hardware having the same ID.

  When you don't use the mouse for a long enough time, the mouse
  disconnects and won't reconnect. I have to go into bluetooth settings,
  remove it, and re-pair it.

  1)
  ~ % lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS
  Release:	12.04

  2)
  ~ % apt-cache policy bluez
  bluez:

  3)
  I expected the mouse to reconnect automatically, or at least after I try to reconnect manually through the bluetooth settings.

  4)
  I have to re-pair the mouse in order to use it again. Turning the mouse off and on doesn't work either.
