      The spec of GraphicsDevice.setFullScreenWindow(Window w) is silent about the following aspects:

      - does this method makes window entered to full screen visible (in case it was invisible initially)
      - if invisible window was entered to full screen and then returned back to windowed mode, whether it remains to be visible or returns to initial (invisible) state
      - if there were several windows on the screen and one of them was set to full-screen and then back to windowed mode should it remain on top of other windows or it will be returned to initial position in Z-order manner
      - same questions for window which was disposed before to be entered to full screen mode.

      All these questions should be clarified for both exclusive and simulated windows.

      Currently full-screen window becomes visible despite of it's initial state and remains on top of other windos when returned back to windowed mode but this is not described in the spec.

      Correction: first two points of description above are clarified in tiger for exclusive full screen mode (see 4839898). However, this behavior is not clear for simulated full screen window (currently setFullScreenWindow makes window visible in this mode also: tested on solaris platform)
