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/ orhttp://forum.brightcove.com/t5/General-Development/Hide-Mouse-Pointer-in-Fullscreen/td-p/7128 .

Not necessarily, though it's first use case is for the <video> element in full screen mode.  I can imagine that full screen <canvas> apps could use it as well.
