--- Comment #6 from Tristan Miller <psychonaut at nothingisreal.com> ---
Well, my expectation was that "full screen mode" is a global, not per-document,
setting.  That is, I figured that once I told Okular to go into full-screen
mode, it would stay that way until I told it to exit full-screen mode, no
matter how many other documents I opened.  (This is similar to how, when I tell
my web browser to go into full-screen mode, I don't expect it to drop out of it
just because a visit another page.)

Admittedly it's a perfectly reasonable design decision for full screen mode to
apply only to the current document, and for subsequent windows to open in the
normal display mode.  But in that case, it seems strange that these subsequent
windows can't be maximized to the full screen, but rather always display the
page bar of the full-screen document at the bottom.  (On double-checking I see
I was wrong about the subsequent windows not having a title bar or frame --
they do; it's just that they can't be completely maximized.)  Is this a problem
with KWin or is Okular drawing the page bar of full-screen documents in a
separate window with the "Always on top" flag set?
