[Feature request] Allow for the app to be displayed without browser borders/controls

Idea

Picking up the Citrix published app idea, is there a way to fully remove the headers/borders of the browser? This way the app would feel like 100% local even if it's not. Going full screen is one way, but that's not as good as having the app able to float around the desktop like if it was a local app.

e.g. displaying exactly what's in this pic, nothing more, nothing less

Hello !

Surfing around, I've found this : https://superuser.com/a/459785

If you're using Chrome/Chromium (or equivalent : Edge, etc...), go take a look at the --app option.

I have a pretty nice result with this on Edge :

  1. Create a shortcut on the desktop
  2. Locate your msedge.exe (or chrome.exe)
  3. Put the absolute path inside quotes
  4. After the end quote, add a space and --app=http://your-url-for-handbrake.com
  5. Name it as you want
  6. Open the shortcut, and in the Clipboard window, set "Scaling mode" to "Remote Sizing" for a nicest "App" behaviour

Tell me if it's what you wanted and have a great day !
