They seem to be very similar features, but the settings are in completely different places...

I guess there are technical reasons for that, but
should/could this not be made similar?

To have mouse in settings seems more comfortable, as it does not need to be applied after the recording. That saves a lot of time.
Same would go for the progressbar, but obviously this can not be done before the recording is ended.

I want to add more options for customization for the Cursor recorder too, to be a pair for the KeyStrokes feature. So my plan is to move the options to add cursor and mouse clicks feature to the editor.

My vote would be to be able to add mouse clicks as a post-recording editing feature like keystrokes, so I can just record my screencast and then later decide whether to add visible mouse clicks or not. This means I don't have to think too much in advance or potentially have to come back and re-record the screencast if I get a setting wrong.
