[Bug 57978] Re: [Dapper] metacity does not all Citrix ICAclient (and others) go fullscreen

[Elijah]

Metacity pulls non-focused windows out of fullscreen mode (unless the
focus is on a *transient* (e.g. dialog) of the fullscreen application).
This allows users to still recover if a fullscreen app hangs or if the
user simply wants to do something else for a minute.  So, this is
expected behavior.  To fix this for your Citrix ICAclient case, we'd
need a way to be able to tell the difference between your case and
normal users just leaving their movie players to do something else for a
minute.  The easiest fix may be to mark the new windows opened under
Citrix to be transients of the fullscreen Citrix window, which probably
makes sense anyway.
