This is an issue for us as we are trying to port over existing code to use RWT. It is especially an issue for usage of external libraries, such as ktable, which make use of this listener.

I have seen a number of posts about mouseMove not being available in RAP due to multi-platform support but haven't seen a suitable workaround. Any suggestions?

Also, sorry for clogging up bugzilla with this question. Is there a mailing list that would be better served for such queries?

Reproducible: Always

Due to client-server nature of RAP we could not implement mouseMove listener properly without sending too many requests and make the performance worse. With every request from the client we sent the current cursor position (Display#getCursorLocation()). Depends on your use case, you could try to use Display#getCursorLocation() instead.

Entering an enhancement request for missing features is generally fine.
If you're unsure if something is actually a bug or if you're looking for a workaround, the RAP forum is the place to discuss those questions:
