Spin-off from bug 521129, specifically these comments:

> To be honest, I prefer the current behaviour over Flash's.  Having dual
> monitors, it has always bothered me that I can't watch flash video fullscreen
> on one monitor while interacting with applications on the other monitor.

> I guess we could add a hidden pref, but we should optimize this for
> single-monitor setups first and foremost.

> Or detect if there are multiple monitors, but I don't know if there's a
> reliable way to do that. I think looking at screen.left would work if the video
> played on the right monitor.
