I like the "all new windows get focus" and don't want to disable it.
The effect of fullscreen overlay windows without changing the current
window is very usefull. For example to show a audio panel or a telephon
call in panel without changing the fullscreen window (not only
mplayer).

Here[1] is a screenshot for you imagination about this tool. And here
is xprop output:

WM_HINTS(WM_HINTS):

0x73, 0x74, 0xc3, 0xa4, 0x72, 0x6b, 0x65 WM_NAME(STRING) = "Lautstärke"
_NET_WM_NAME(UTF8_STRING) = 0x4c, 0x61, 0x75, 0x74, 0x73, 0x74, 0xc3,
0xa4, 0x72, 0x6b, 0x65

The strange thing is that other fullscreen windows (e.g. Totem Video
Player or Blender) seems not to unfullscreen if I change the audio
volume. If I read what you said at top I don't understand this. Mplayer
seems to behave in a special way. So is this a Mplayer bug? But it's
also E17 releated, because I don't have this problem with other window
managers.
