+
+The `RFB.requestPointerLock()` method is used to request that the RFB canvas
+hold a [Pointer
+Lock](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Pointer_Lock_API), which
+hides the mouse cursor and provides relative motion events. This must be called
+directly from an event handler where a user has directly interacted with the
