Hi,

I got a remarks from an app review on the mozilla marketplace that as
there is no back button in Firefox OS, you have to provide your own UI
to exit Fullscreen mode. I don't have a Firefox OS now to test but on
the simulator, when you press the home shortcut (not the home button as
it disappear when going fullscreen), the user is taken back to home
screen, thus not only exiting fullscreen mode.
When I tried it on a device a few month ago, if I remember correctly,
the home button could be used to exit fullscreen.

Have the behavior changed? And maybe more important, if I'm using the
fullscreen API in an app I'll have a warning when my app is reviewed but
what about traditional website? (eg: Youtube & co.) they won't know they
have to add an 'exit fullscreen' button.

Maybe I dreamed that 'home button' => 'exit fullscreen', but don't you
think it makes sense? Also it's obviously annoying to have to add extra
UI for that (it could be a gesture or double tap, but that's not gonna
be obvious for the user)


what do you think about it?
