Not in my experience. Try it.
What are you powering down after a mouse was removed and returned,
such as changing to another one?
With Slack. I do the above and I keep working.
You can write a script file such as remouse or regpm,
as long as gpm is run with the stuff that is after it in rc.gpm .
The ONLY time I ever reboot is to see how things go, when I boot up.
