Google just launched a new stable version of Chrome today that adds supports for the Pointer Lock JavaScript API. The purpose of this API is pretty simple: in 3D games on the browser, for example, the mouse often moves outside of the window, which effectively makes playing the game impossible. With the Pointer Lock API, which is currently working its way through the standardization process, developers can restrict mouse movements to the inside of the window. This, says Google, allows users "to control their perspective naturally with the mouse, without moving outside the window or bumping into the edge of their screen."
