It's compounded a bit by the fact that Apple's implementation of
PopupFactory doesn't seem to get the algorithm for deciding when to
use a heavyweight window quite right - sometimes, apparently
randomly, it will use a heavyweight window even though a
lightweight popup would work just fine.
I think heavyweights are used for two reasons. One to get the
shadow, two to get the translucent effect that pop-ups/menus have on
OS X. I wasn't sure if lightweight pop-ups were ever used.
