Safari and Edge scare the user about pointer lock control, which makes it annoying/impossible to build nice 3D games or visualizations in Tauri. Every on click event is met with a huge, scary browser-native alert. Chrome doesn't do that.

That's just one of dozens of browser inconsistencies we've recently dealt with. It's just the most egregious.

Safari and Edge aren't that interesting, since Tauri uses the OS's native web view, not Safari or Edge. Are you saying that the web view also scares the user about pointer lock control?

Yes. The OS's native web view uses the same rendering/JS engines as the OS's preferred browser choice. This is why native web views are inconsistent, and in this case, crippled.
