This is a nitpick, but...
Could we use the singular "mouse" instead of "mice" in the @node name?
For example, by naming it "Mouse input" or "Mouse events" or similar.
I believe that change might make it more immediately obvious to
non-native speakers of English. (I usually only have one "mouse" on any
given machine, while having several "mice" sounds a bit unusual, to say
the least.)
