The spec currently says that the newest window gets the screen...since users 
can alt-tab (or whatever) between them, this means the user can control which 
one they want to deal with at any given moment.

The intent is that multiple fullscreen windows--which I expect to be rare, but 
possible--can coexist, but I'm okay with whatever people agree is appropriate 
behavior for managing them.

To be clear, KWin (or krandr?) is getting an XRRScreenChangeNotifyEvent, and 
then resizing windows in response to that, and not the various application 
windows responding directly to this event. Is that right?
