[[
If an element at the top of a fullscreen element stack is removed from a
document, fully exit fullscreen.
]]

AFAICT, this is the only way that "fully exit fullscreen" is exposed to
scripts. This allows an iframe embedded in a presentation to exit fullscreen
for the presentation itself, which seems bad even if rather harmless.

Why not just exit fullscreen on the document from which the element was
removed?
