Thanks!

As I reported with Firefox before, also Xpdf's fullscreen behaviour
changed. The most obvious change is that both clients now also cover the
dwm status bar when in fullscreen.

Xpdf seems even a little more aggressive. When in fullscreen, it uses
the entire screen, no matter what. Before, dwm was able to tile multiple
fullscreen Xpdf clients.

Also, Xpdf doesn't allow any other client (like a terminal) to be in
front of it any more. Alt+Tabbing only switches between Xpdfs, the other
clients are counted, but ignored.

I guess, this is correct behaviour and not a dwm bug. From a user
perspective, Firefox and Xpdfs old behaviour were more user friendly,
though. But then again, all these programs (and especially Flash) do
*not* suck less.
