Bug description:
  On fresh boots the greeter & desktop may have the cursor visible or may not until mouse is moved.
  On a log out/in the cursor is almost always invisible until mouse is moved. (unless made visible in greeter screen, then visible on Desktop

  This is all  well & good, maybe some intentional aesthetics/design (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=687791) , however sometimes the cursor never becomes visible.
  In that case hitting some keys or context menu can cause it to show, though most times a log out is needed.
  (with the removal of ctrl+alt+delete > log out this means most users will need to either blindly find the session indicator or hit power button.

  When the g-s-d cursor plugin is disabled then the cursor is always
  visible, it the plugin has no use in an ubuntu session then maybe it
  should be default disabled

  There is also the possibility, particularly on ssd drives,  of a login
  with no session indicator. This occasionally  combines with no visible
  cursor.
