actually it's not a special case solution. Looking at it, I see:
* games which grab mouse
* applications which have additional UI hidden at the top

>From the apps I sometimes use in fullscreen, these are:
* Gwenview
* Okular
* Browsers
* VMs
* VNC Viewer

So it's actually a quite common feature. In fact I do not know any application 
not doing it.

Concerning the possible complaints: I cannot remember a bug report about games 
preventing present windows.

But it's not a big deal to add a config option to it.
