For using sprite 0 I would start by trying to overwrite its pointer ($dff120) with mine in a custom copper list. The OS would still maintain the old sprite with the mouse position but that data just wouldn't be displayed anymore. If you use an Intuition screen you can do that by using Screen.ViewPort.UCopIns.
