The mouse cursor theme is now part of the metatheme format, and there are at

Two cycles ago? This only appeared in Ubuntu LTS with the recent
release. So people using LTS have only had a few weeks to notice the
change, and possibly suggest changes.
Discussed at length? This did not involve Ubuntu LTS users, as far as I
know.
This hasn't appeared in Debian stable yet.
right, when you don't know if the bug is an upstream one report it to
the distributor, in this case the bug is clearly a GNOME choice and will
not be changed in a distribution specific way so either it's sent on
bugzilla.gnome.org as it should or it stays on launchpad only and will
probably not
See Gnome Bugzilla - Bug no. 537128 - 'mouse pointer themes missing' - I

thank you for your bug report, as you figured the issue is a GNOME one,

I mentioned above that I experienced a crash in Firefox while changing a
mouse pointer. Actually what I was doing was trying to start this bug
report and experimenting with changing mouse pointers from the theme
dialog, and trying to see what would happen if I changed the pointer in
one theme,
The second current way to get to theme (and thus mouse pointer)
selection, is to right-click on the screen background, bringing up a
menu which allows one to select Appearance Preferences in addition to
'Background' - one of these choices is Theme which works as above.

I just confirmed that the same behavior occurs with Fedora 8, with the
same version of Gnome. So this is a Gnome 2.22.3 issue.

I made a brief survey tonight among members of a LUG I am in.
One person tried to figure out how to change the mouse pointer, and gave
up after trying for a while.
His teenage son managed to find the dialog, with a fair amount of
prompting from me.
