Ubuntu 9.04's new notification system is really nice and non obtrusive, however it can still get in the way if you need the entire screen. Accordingly, the notifications system has been designed to not draw notifications when a program such as a movie player is telling the operating system to suppress the screen saver.
I propose we enable this functionality for Wine whenever we've switched to a full screen mode. I assume there's also a similar function for applications on Windows, so if we haven't done so already we should probably implement that and suppress the screen saver then as well.
Thoughts?
I think the app is supposed to do this for instance via
dlls/user32/sysparams.c and the SPI_SETSCREENSAVERRUNNING SystemParameter
or hook into ddraw in some methods.
