I have looked into iceweasel and fullscreen stuff today.

My proposal: remove the current fullscreen-extension package from  
Debian and package ff-fullscreen [1].

I have started working on ff-fullscreen already (for a customer  
project). It needs some patches here and there, but works well with  
Iceweasel in jessie.
