As a tablet user, I can enable Media Viewer's full-screen mode, so that I can enjoy a truly immersive experience.
Note: We may have disabled it because we were worried that users couldn't figure out a way to get out of that mode, but I really don't think it's an issue if we allow tapping anywhere to show the hidden buttons.

If controls appear on tap, there should be no problem providing the feature on touch devices.
for those not supporting a native full-screen mode we can still provide a chrome-less experience (without metadata panel and hidden controls) that gets close enough.
Mass-removing the Multimedia tag from MediaViewer tasks, as this is now being worked on by the Reading department, not Editing's Multimedia team.
