No - and I'm told it's very difficult to do across all window
managers in X.  From what I understand (and I'm *not* an expert),
you essentially have to shut down the window and open a new one.

However if you did that in a running OpenGL application, you'd
lose all of the textures, display lists, shaders, etc that had
already been stored - so it's not trivial for PW.
