Autohide player controls and status bar while in web browser mode
One feature I would love to see is the option to autohide the player controls and status bar while in the browser view. Similar to how the sidebar auto minimizes when you switch to the web browser.
Or maybe just incorporate the player controls into the status bar while in browser mode?
Thoughts?

Inappropriate?And add a Fullscreen mode with password protection to it, while you're at it (Partymode).
To stay on Topic: Autohiding or minimizing the player controls is a good idea. The controls of the mini-mode for example would suffice, while browsing.
I'd like that. Or just let them hide and then reappear, when "mousing over" the area.
Very nice Idea indeed. In my opinion, every gained inch (or centimeter, where I live) while browsing is a plus! -
Inappropriate?An update on the idea.
This assumes that the player controls are set to display at the bottom.
Possible options are:
Autohiding the player controls so that they pop back into view when you move the mouse to the bottom of the screen.
Adding a toggle button for the player controls in the status bar, like the left hand pane does.
Or even just creating a miniature version of the player controls and now playing status to live in the status bar itself when the regular player controls are hidden.
Anyone out there?
I’m excited

Inappropriate?This idea is great! Could someone please pick it up and make an add-on? That would be soooooo cool!
I’m happy

Inappropriate?If you're using the nightlies, hit F11 - it hides the servicepane & player controls, thanks to Reid.

Inappropriate?Cool! For those who don't use the nightlies, yet, i just updated my extension:

Of course thats just a bad spare for an autohide-addon. -
Inappropriate?@Stevel,
So is this an indication that it will likely be in the next official release? Would be nice.
