Hi VS Code dev here,

First of all I apologise for the bad issue and steps. I am more creating this in hope that somebody might have a hint how to fix this.

1. iPad, latest Safari 14
2. https://vscode-web-test-playground.azurewebsites.net/?enter=true
3. F1 > full screen
4. The whole things goes in and out of full screen


It seems like Safari goes into full screen mode but immediately exits. We call the `webkitRequestFullscreen` api as implementation detail of full screen.

So my questions are:
1. What could cause Safari to exit full screen mode automatically?
2. Should `webkitRequestFullscreen` work on iPad
3. Is there some alternative API that would just hide the address bar?

Thanks
Isidor
