I do not imply, continuous mouse is a borg feature. Fact is it is a questionable feature, where people have different opinion on whether it is borgish or not. And COW policy is that it is a client out of any questions. So that's why we introduced the feature packets, to let the server GOD decide what he thinks is borgish or not. To be pragmatic, for a questionable feature like this, we should not react so hard to remove the keys imediatly, but we should fix it to eliminate any possible doubt for future. Lateron we still may decide on removing the old keys. So the better way is to convince the server GODs to turn the feature on, on the server.
