I suggest you stay away from enterFullScreenMode:withOptions: if you are
serious about fullscreen support.  It has a host of problems, which you
can read about in the archives.  Basically, when it goes fullscreen it
makes your view's level kCGMaximumWindowLevel-1 and so the menu bar,
dock, and your floating window will always be below it.  It also doesn't
play nice with SetSystemUIMode() so getting auto show/hide of the
menubar and dock is not going to happen.  Sorry to bring bad news. :)
Do file bugs.
