wine's fullscreen code has no effect on metacity

Look at src/window.c:recalc_window_features() for possible reasons 
metacity decided to disable fullscreenability.

In this case it looks pretty clear though - the firefox window isn't 
resizable, metacity disables fullscreen in that case unless the window 
size is equal to the screen size and the window is not decorated.

It looks like 1280x1024 could be your screen size, so my guess is that 
the window has a frame on it.

I don't really know why the !window->decorated is in the check in 
recalc_window_features but Elijah may well.

This would explain why wine fullscreening works sometimes, it probably 
works when the window is a) full screen size and b) also disables the 
window decorations.

Fullscreen mode would remove the decorations anyhow though, is why I 
don't know why metacity checks this.
