Description

Some kinds of games, for example first-person shooters, will be hard to play if it isn't possible to lock and hide the cursor. We should support this.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how input handling works in the pxl framework and implement pointer locking using the appropriate windowing library (e.g., winit). Trace the cursor event handling and add support for locking and hiding the cursor.
