Is -webkit-cursor-visibility just for video ? If so, I am personally very much in favor of such a selector. It's a common feature of full-screen video players, see e.g. http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/forums/jw-player/bug-reports/31053/mouse-cursor-does-not-disappear-in-fullscreen-mode/or http://forum.brightcove.com/t5/General-Development/Hide-Mouse-Pointer-in-Fullscreen/td-p/7128 .
Here's a discussion by Chrome users: http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/Hd7AZRWejpk . It would be nice to get this through the CSS group quickly and implement without the prefix.
