Immersive 3D games is not really a key use case for JavaFX, so I doubt
we would add any API to support this. I don't see it as a feature we
could implement in isolation anyway. As an example, we don't support
full-screen exclusive mode (FSEM) on Windows, which might be needed to
implement this completely. You might be able to do something in the
application: set your stage to fullScreen, and update the cursor
manually each frame (possibly using Robot::mouseMove). You would have to
figure out how to interpret the mouse events you will receive.

This is pretty much essential for mouse-based camera control in 3D
simulations, especially when combined with a "warp cursor to center of
window" feature. Typically, the cursor will be confined to the window
and warped to the center of the window at the start of every frame.
This allows for all mouse movements to be treated as delta offsets from
the center of the window, and these can typically be passed directly
into camera handling functions.
