Neither Galeon nor Adobe Reader work the way they used to, i.e.,
appear behind the panel(s) in fullscreen mode.  While there is some
hope to petition the Galeon developers to fix this, there is almost
zero chance that Adobe is going to get around to this.  Is there a
workaround?  Some magic Gconf key?

( I use my laptop for full screen PDF presentations and it is unusable
  with the current panel behavior in Gnome2. )
