Hiding and showing the controllers

[Colin Clark]

I'll review your branch this afternoon.

In terms of #2, Anastasia's FLUID-4556 branch may have this functionality in place if you can get the code working. At least for reference, it's here:

The issue here is that when the video loses focus, it's because the first controller gets focus. At this point we obviously don't want to hide the controllers. What I need to know when the next thing after the video player gets focus. Perhaps this is a case for deadMansBlur?
