I just had this thought on the way back from Korean class.
Why not have in addition to the fullscreen mode, a presentation mode, where one can get out of it with the ESCAPE key, without any toolbars, scrollbars, etc. Only the canvas.
The more complete ideas is to move us into the position similar to FLASH, where we *could* give a presentation, with hyperlinks that link to other SVG files withint the same window, and be able to navigate between local/global documents.
To take this even further, and extra cool, would be to "Save as SVG Player," where we could wrap the SVG file(s) into a binary packed player with our rendering engine inside, portable away from Inkscape, so that one could put it on a CD or even package it with KNOPPIX for an independent playback. This would put us more in the multimedia SVG game--in league with FLASH.
For now, Johan, it would be soooo cool to also have a presentation mode with ONLY the canvas (maybe no control key for this now) and you can get out by hitting any key (ESCAPE though would be preferred).
FYI: Illustrator has a similar mode for editing of files.
It would seem to me to be an easy functionality to add, but when coupled with hyperlinking between documents within the same window, in sp_anchor_link_follow() in src/object-ui.cpp, we could have a quick little presentation system.
Thoughts?

I've put in a ctrl-F11 shortcut. I'm not familiar with Illustrator, so I've put in ctrl-shift-F11 to revert back. Is that ok ?
Well, probably just having a single keybinding to toggle to/from fullscreen would be fine.
