You misread me: the BWindowScreen already has the kWindowScreenFeel
which makes it frontmost window (even menus open behind it) - it just
doesn't span over the whole screen, as it doesn't follow the resolution
changes. So there can be different windows on screen at once, or at
least that's what the app_server sees.
