I propose to edit this area https://dietpi.com/docs/software/desktop/#chromium to use tabs and add a tab for the kiosk mode description.

The planned change does not require any documentation change. It only makes the Kiosk mode as non-root user work in more cases without manual permission changes. But a tab about the Kiosk mode autostart option makes sense.

Hiding mouse pointer or having a completely non-interactive Chromium would be a new feature, better covered with the "app" mode instead of "kiosk" mode. See:

In the doc (PR #844) I added this option as a tweaking hint. If we have an own dietpi-autostart option for this, we have to change/update the docu.
