User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:18.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/18.0 Build ID: 20130116073211 Steps to reproduce: viewed a video/* that firefox can play natively directly. hit the full screen button in the bottom right corner of the video Actual results: <site> is now full screen. Allow full screen? Expected results: firefox recognized that this came from some sort of trusted interface or page, or somehow differentiate this specific case from a potentially malicious untrusted-javascript-going-fullscreen thing.

Perhaps we could assume that fullscreen requests from the video controls' were already approved and not show the approval prompt, just show the "$domain is now fullscreen" warning for a few seconds... I will think on this more.
