I've also taken a look at this issue. Even when the taskbar is drawn below a
fullscreen game window, it is able to erroneously capture keypresses. This is a
known issue with Doom 2016. Hamish's patch will provide a complete fix for this
problem as well. Since the taskbar will not be drawn at all, if a window is
fullscreen.

If the taskbar is not drawn on top of the Z-order stack then maximising a
window will draw on top of the taskbar (which does not mimic native MS Windows
behaviour). I've tested out a few scenarios, with a small C++ test program
(compiled with winegcc) which simply draws a window. One the tests being to
maximise the window.
