Investigate removing Safari's "video blowup" option

Description

IMO the downsides of Safari's current fullscreen option (inconsistency between browsers, forced aspect ratio, loss of custom controls/elements) outweigh its upside (true fullscreen instead of full-browser-screen). We should discuss and investigate whether we should simply remove support for it.

Instead, we should wait until a few browsers have implemented the FullScreen API and leverage that.

  • Milestone changed from Player 5.9 to Backlog

We'll eventually want to address native browser fullscreen mode across all use cases (webkitFullscreen, mozFullscreen, etc)

That one is indeed killed in 6.0.
