[w3c/pointerlock] The frequency of the security popup (#58)

Hi :)

The PointerLock API appears to exists only for FPS games etc. but i have another scenario where this API is really useful but the security popups is starting to become annoying...

Locking the pointer for small and fine sliders is useful, with a small slider on screen we can ask the user to move the mouse more than the actual slider's width.
Also this API looks the only one to be able to lock the position AND provide solution to not being blocked by the edge of the screen.

May i invite you to visit gridsound.com/daw to have an example of this behavior, on this app i didn't implement the feature of moving the mouse in a really bigger area than the slider's size, but you still can feel the confort it could provide, you can already see the fact that there is no problem with sliders on the screen's edge)

Could we not showing the same popup for the next 20sec or something like this? Because it's looks like this API has been though like the fullscreen API, there is no scenario where an app will fullscreen many times in the same 20sec, but locking a cursor yes
