This is not an easy task. Unlike keyboard mouse needs to be either
polled pretty quickly or used with interrupts. Also it will mean that
you'll need to adjust graphics driver to show the cursor and to move it
quickly bypassing the usual core. Only the events like mouse clicks
should go through something like grub_checkkey or grub_checkkey itself.
