Full Screen - Should We Just Stop Asking?

Add us to the list of those who want learning products created without the player interfering with the user experience.
Yet, when I come here and search, it looks like this feature request is over 7 years old. And the typical staff response is to suggest requesting this as a feature.
Can we simply get the status of this recurring feature request? If Articulate has no interest in providing this feature, and this is obviously still important to so many of us, then we can accept that we may need to use a different product. Right?

Pamela, you don't need to keep waiting, you can use the Full Screen widget to show content without the player: https://cluelabs.com/full-screen-mode-elearning-widget.html
Hi Pamela,
If you are using the classic player in SL360, you can make the entire player invisible and also publish to full screen.

Hi Nicholas and thanks! This demonstrates the capability very well and makes it even harder to understand why it isn't a feature in the software.
Hi, Pamela:
You might find this recorded webinar, with David Anderson and Trina Rimmer, of some value. It's about Creating a Custom User Interface in Storyline 360. --Daniel
It'd be nice if Articulate included a Chromeless color scheme for the Classic Player for people to use or start with.
Sorry - I wanted to click Reply, and accidentally clicked Report. Ugh.
I have a couple of chrome-less player templates that I save and reuse for this purpose, so I can start with it each time.
I am hoping the player will get some more features once the accessible features are finished. I know they are working on player improvements. My pet peeve is the awful black screen that users encounter when they are on a mobile device.
Would you consider exporting your Chromeless templates and attach them here for folks who could use them?

Thanks for considering.
I proposed the idea of a feature list here but it doesn't seem to have attracted much traction!
