Feature Request: Provide a way to enter full screen, or lock mouse cursor to the browser window playfield. #19

Hi again,

This is just another friendly request to see if it would be possible to provide a way to enter full screen, or lock mouse cursor to the browser window play-field. The reason why this is important is because when your mouse leaves the browser window, mouse movement is no longer responsive because it is being consumed by other programs or the OS. When trying to fly left/right/up/down at full speed, it is quite frequent to have your mouse move off the play area. This is especially exacerbated by having multi-monitor displays where the edge of one screen simply moves your cursor over another window/application.

Perhaps this could be avoid by adding keyboard controls for the helicopter, but I guess that doesn't really solve the original issue and is more like a workaround? Anyway, just another quality of life observation I noted which seems to hamper game-play somewhat.
