I'd like to see all four forwarded from the host. I'd be fine with
"bus" being set to VIRTUAL, but I'm not sure why that would be a good
thing to do?

I think for the emulated devices it's fine to use VIRTUAL.

Yes, on the host side just use BUS_VIRTUAL if you don't have a real bus to set.

For the passthrough case suspected we could confuse apps because ->phys
points to a virtio device whereas ->type says "I'm usb".

That's not an issue. The "phys" field hasn't been standardized in any
way that I'm aware of (except on a per-driver basis, maybe).

But at least the device database probably doesn't care much about the
physical path I guess, because the mouse is the same no matter which usb
port I plug it in, correct?

Correct!

Thanks
