One cool thing about this approach is that it appears to be
Expose-savvy (at least in 10.4.x). The fake window's position will
always be in sync with its parent window. And, since the fake window
can never become key/main, expose keeps it out of its list of windows
you can directly select. When you mouseover the fake window, expose
gives you the name of its parent window instead.
That's the overlay window solution I talked about in the original
post. The main issue with this solution is that the depth is not the
same for the items inside the overlay window and the parent window.
That could be a problem for all the drawing process I have in mind.
But this might be the solution I will end up using.
The other issue with an overlay window is when you minimize the parent
window. If I am to believe what I see with Drawers, the child window
would be hidden before the window is minimized. Leaving a large blank
space in the parent window. I don't like this a lot.
