Fair question. Basically we don't want the window borders around our window
components, yet we need the "overlay" capability of system level windows so
we can hover our gui components on top of the canvas3d. Our inventory, icon
bars, targetting and health monitors, chat box are all implemented within a
hierarchy of our own defined window classes. At the base we use GuiWindow
which extends JWindow. We use Jwindow instead of awt windows because all
our components are Swing, and we like a lot of the capability of Swing in
regards to its management of its canvas space.
With that said, we are allowing Cosm to be run full screen or windowed for
the main viewing platform, and I was experimenting with being able to have
the top level window be a JFrame, so the window could be moved by the user.

David,
Why not use a standard AWT Frame? Why are you using JFrame or JWindow?
