<AWT Dev> Replacement for com.apple.eawt.FullScreen*

[DRC]

As far as filing a bug report, I would love to, but the rules for
obtaining a bug tracker account are rather stringent, and I doubt that I
qualify (https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/general/JBS+Overview).  I
am an application developer that relies upon OpenJDK, and I have some
familiarity with the source code vis-a-vis diagnosing issues such as
this, but I'm not an OpenJDK author.  Sorry if this is the wrong forum
for me to post issues like this, but I didn't know where else to post.
