[macosx] Java 7 print dialog creates a new window on app-switch.

[Abhinay Reddyreddy]

I have noticed a bug in Java 7 print dialog on Mac. I have reported it to bugs.sun.com<http://bugs.sun.com> but did not receive any response.
Could someone confirm if this bug has been noticed and fixed or if there is any workaround for it.

Thanks,
Abhinay.

Issue: An extra window is created at the top-left corner of the screen, if a user switches the app while it is showing a native print dialog.

Steps to reproduce:
Run the attached code
click print button
when the native print dialog shows up, switch to a different app using Cmd+Tab or mouse
switch back to the java app with print dialog
notice a new window is created at the top right corner of the screen.
