Summary: Toggle FullScreen Mode: Window ends up under others

Initial Comment:
Sometimes when I toggle fullscreen mode, the jEdit window appears behind other windows (such as my desktop panel). 
This happens in BOTH directions (switching it on and off).

I have to toggle between jedit and another window before I can see it fully again, even though it already has focus.

Exactly! That would close this issue!

Message:
I suggest that when you get this behavior in jEdit, try to open other
windows (not jEdit) and see if you have the same. I don't think this can be
a jEdit issue, though maybe I can ask the window manager (through java) to
make the window "on top" of all others (not always on top, just currently
on top).

If that is the case, it's an issue with 2 different window managers,
because I have it with KDE also.

This happens to me all the time with other apps as well as jEdit.  In my
case, I'm certain it's a window manager issue.  I'm running Ubuntu with
Gnome.

Message:
When you toggle full-screen mode, the current jEdit window is disposed of
(using "dispose()"), and then re-created with the new bounds and made
visible again, so for the OS / window manager this is a new window.
Perhaps in these cases, other new windows also have this behavior?
