Hi Niels,

End of the academic semester, so I haven't had time to look into this more, and 
unfortunately it doesn't look like I'll be able to answer your question before 
10.04 ships.  If my memory serves correctly, I got as far as debugging 
undefined classes, because the XMind project didn't successfully import/link 
the drawing primitives library.  Does SWT provide these?  Yeah, so I'll have to 
learn enough java to debug Xmind's code, using an IDE that I'm not familiar 
with at all.  If you have the time, and you would like to close this bug very 
quickly, I suspect that this code snippet, with one minor modification, will 
reveal if this bug is valid or not:
http://www.java2s.com/Code/Java/SWT-JFace-Eclipse/Openashellmaximizedfullscreen.htm

It seems like if shell.setMaximized(true) is changed to something like
shell.setFullScreen(true), then the resulting simple application will
test for this bug.  Basically, I'd see if our Eclipse/SWT/GTK stack
successfully gets metacity to toggle NET_WM_STATE_FULLSCREEN for the
java-created window.  If this succeeds, then I would test to see what
happens when a new fullscreen window is created from within the class of
an existing non-fullscreen window.  This two window scenario, where the
first window remains non-fullscreen, and the second window can only
exist fullscreen, will definitely show if this bug can be closed.  If
the second, new fullscreen window covers the gnome panel...well, I guess
this reporting bug was kind of pointless then!

Thanks again,
Nicholas
