I'm using Lucid 10.4. The -keystroke option works in gedit for me ever since I changed the option in /etc/default/unclutter (otherwise, the default overrode the keystroke). However, -keystroke still doesn't work in Firefox.

Jim, gedit has its own cursor hiding, what you observed has nothing to do with unclutter.

Ubuntu 11.04 (updated from 10.10): the problem is still present
unclutter version is 8-14
