The media player in Chrome and in Focus with WebView support gestures to easily seek forward/backward in blocks of 10 seconds. This is very convenient on small touch devices where the seek bar is difficult to accurately control. This does not work on Firefox nor Focus with GeckoView. It is a loss of functionality for Focus (compared to previous versions), and a nice-to-have for Firefox. The Chrome/WebView implementation uses a double-tap gesture to seek. Left side of the video seeks backwards, right side seeks forwards.
