**Analysis:**
The getFocusableWindowState() method is not intended to modify the configuration; doing so can cause recursive re-entry on Linux.

**Proposed Fix:**
We are intentionally overriding getFocusableWindowState() to allow it to change the configuration, in order to verify that calling getScreenImOn() for ownerless windows does not throw any exceptions.
To prevent recursive re-entry, we use a flag to ensure that getFocusableWindowState() is executed only once
