The thing is that now that we have those signals and you can prevent fullscreen from happening using that API, I see no reason for duplicating the functionality or make it it more complex with policies.

This is a good point, permission-request api is async, I think the internal fullscreen api is sync and that's probably the reason why we decided to use the enter/leave signals
