Public bug reported:

I actually found this very nice when i was using a program i did in java
that uses a fake full screen technique that removes decorations.

It preserved the rounded corners of the frame even without the
decorations and that allowed me to access the activities tab in
fullscreen (unlike say, gnome-terminal or firefox).

Pity it doesn't work if the window is not at least decorated and visible
once (on deserialization, if i go into fake fullscreen mode, the window
is square as normally, because; i guess; it never had a decoration that
needed a window shaping).

Anyway, RFE: a great bug i'd like to see in the original toolkit.
