I was trying to make it flow better and avoid some repetition
I did not think it necessary to enumerate subclasses.
What motivates you to include "behavior" ?
Since we already have words elsewhere that cover position + dimension
maybe the new words can just be
Visual effects such as halos, shadows, motion effects and animations may
be applied to the window by the desktop window management system.
These are outside the knowledge and control of the AWT and so for the
purposes of this specification are not considered part of the
AWT-defined window.

Are this text more clear than my version? I create it using the text
forms/terms which
are already present in the javadoc.
The text where we describe bounds/location optionality:
126 * Note: the location and size of top-level windows (including
127 * {@code Window}s, {@code Frame}s, and {@code Dialog}s)
128 * are under the control of the desktop's window management system.
129 * Calls to {@code setLocation}, {@code setSize}, and
130 * {@code setBounds} are requests (not directives) which are
131 * forwarded to the window management system. Every effort will be
132 * made to honor such requests. However, in some cases the window
133 * management system may ignore such requests, or modify the
requested
134 * geometry in order to place and size the {@code Window} in a way
135 * that more closely matches the desktop settings.
The new text about visual perception:
137 * The visual appearance and behavior of top-level windows
(including
138 * normal/shaped/translucent/undecorated {@code Window}s, {@code
Frame}s,
139 * {@code Dialog}s) are under the control of the desktop's window
management
140 * system. The visual effects as shadows, motion effects,
animations,
141 * and others may not be controlled by the applications but work
according to
142 * the desktop settings.
Both look aligned.
