Flash supports full screen with hardware acceleration our underling architecture is different. Java and Firefox native video have no "native" support for full-screen. This means we would have to create a new window with full sized dom element resized in software. This is ~very slow~ only a few frames per second on my 2Ghz dual core. I recommend we delay support for full screen until the native browser implementation have a hardware accelerated full screen mode likewise for java playback we should not support this (unless the cortado applet adds hardware accelerated full screen support).

I'm resolving this as invalid as the Java players can't do fullscreen, or shouldn't if they can. :)

Native <video> on many browsers can now -- that's covered over in bug 18082
