STR:

* Open http://boingboing.net/2014/06/02/xkcd-the-ted-talk.html in a tab on the primary display - it has an iframe pointing at a html page with a video.
* Start the video while on the primary display.
* Drag drag the tab to a secondary display
* Make the video full screen

Expected:
* Video goes full screen on the secondary display
Actual:
* Video goes full screen on the primary display.

Similarly (and probably worse):

* Have Fx open on the primary display
* Create a new browser window, move it to the secondary display.
* Open the above URL in the secondary window and start it playing.
* Drag the tab from that secondary window back to the Fx Window on the primary display.
* Make the video full screen.

Actual:
* Video doesn't appear on *any* display.  The audio can be heard, but no video can be seen at all.

I can't repro this on a simple youtube video.  Best I can tell the ted video is flash.  I can repro in multiple profiles on this one machine.

I'm going to call this a Flash bug.

Resolving old bugs which are likely not relevant any more, since NPAPI plugins are deprecated.
