What do you suggest then?

So how does one create such a fullscreen window?

I've done this before so I might help...

First you create a borderless window that will be used to cover the whole screen real estate.

NSRect screenRect = [[NSScreen mainScreen] frame];
NSWindow *window = [[NSWindow alloc] initWithContentRect:screenRect
styleMask:NSBorderlessWindowMask
backing:NSBackingStoreBuffered
defer:NO
screen: [NSScreen mainScreen]];

Then you have to capture the display using:

if(CGDisplayCapture(kCGDirectMainDisplay) != kCGErrorSuccess) {
	/* Handle errors here */
}

When using AppKit, you shouldn't capture the display. Bad things can happen.
