Will this be against Chrome Web Store's policies?

[Pock]

Hi,

My extension uses the TabCapture API to modify the tab's audio. Once the tab's audio is captured, the user cannot enter fullscreen, only partial fullscreen. This issue was reported here (https://issues.chromium.org/issues/41385421). 

To work around this, I'm implementing a fullscreen shortcut that...

1. Turns off tabCapture temporarily. 

2. Enters fullscreen.

3. Turns tabCapture back on. 

However, I'm concerned this might violate the store's program policies. As mentioned 

> Any attempt to circumvent intended limitations or enforcement actions will result in the immediate termination of your developer account, and possibly related developer accounts.

It's not clear whether the fullscreen issue is an intended limitation or a bug (Issue mentioned above has been open for years). If it's a intended limitation of the TabCapture API, I do not see it mentioned anywhere. 

Will this shortcut be a violation of this policy? 

Thanks

As it is marked as a bug, I do not believe it would be against policy

The classification might be a mistake (left hand not talking to the right hand). Since the penalty is immediate termination, I'll like to confirm before proceeding.

For another extension, Volume Master: the dev mentions in the store listing that it's an intended limitation. Again, I cannot find any confirmation, but he might have read it somewhere. 

> Chrome prevents you from going to a complete full-screen when using any extension manipulating with sound so you can always see the blue rectangle icon in the tab bar (to be aware of audio is being manipulated). There's no way to bypass it and after all it's a good thing that keeps you safe.
