True, although there are still questions about how the user experience will

Our next step is to extend this to non-fullscreen, so I think it would be
counter-productive to preclude non-fullscreen at this time.
I think that adding an API for non-fullscreen mouse lock would be a detriment
to the Web platform. So gating

This API seems clearly necessary to implement traditional FPS game controls.
On the other hand, I would not want my browser to have this kind of

many things, and are thus relatively safe to use, not yet triggering the

Yes, this is how fullscreen applications regularly work on OS X.

dangerous and frustrating things Web pages could possibly do.
While I agree, that doesn't seem like a problem with the spec. As I
read the spec, it seems that it leaves enough

Mouse events normally considered user gestures (e.g. mousedown, click)

A Mouse Lock API has been under discussion on the W3 public-webapps list

The primary goal is to enable use cases such as first person perspective 3D
applications. This is done by providing scripted access to mouse movement
