It will be great to add an option to hide the cursor on all videos. As you can see on this video the cursor not disappear / stay visible when playing it due to probably some bad coding. Can be useful on this kind of video.

Thanks !
 
Is this same as issue that you filed previously?https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=631405?
Obviously not ;) As I said it's a feature request to add an option to hide the cursor on all videos for the cases where the cursor not disappear / stay visible due to probably some bad coding from the website.

I know that the websites that should handle that but it's obviously not always the case.

feature request on UI. give to pangu, add Frank in.
Maybe with a shortcut to hide the cursor on demand ?

I don't think we want this as websites can already implement it themselves. However, it sounds reasonable to always hide the cursor when native controls are used, I've filed  bug 709802  for this. Will WontFix this one.
