Details

when using the flash player plugin, ctrl+w closes the fullscreen

when using html 5 video in fullscreen mode, ctrl+w closes the fullscreen and the whole tab

it would be nice to have a different behaviour for ctrl+w when viewing html 5 video in fullscreen mode: close the fullscreen and back to current tab (and then another ctrl+w would close the tab)

of course it shouldn't affect usual fullscreen browsing (ctrl+w would still close the current tab) just for the html 5 video in fullscreen mode
I did not reproduce the close fullscreen in Flash. I reproduced the close fullscreen and tab while HTML5 fullscreen. Fx44b4 Win10.
