In fact I find it confusing (as a user) that it updates mouse-faces almost
always, but most things only when it's `ready'.  Since you can't actually
_do_ anything until emacs is ready to accept input, it seems much better to
have mouse-faces respond similarly to the way the rest of emacs does.

Anyway, that's my take.
