Description

Name of clone:
?

Purpose of code changes on this branch:
Switch Mac to use native full screen mode rather than taking over the current space and (really?) changing the system screen resolution. This introduces a dependency on OS X 10.7 Lion. Tested configuration options (automatically enter full screen mode; render to main window; others) and also hotkeys, and all work as expected. This also removes the now-superfluous "Fullscreen Resolution" video option (on OS X only).

When reviewing my code changes, please focus on:

  • Is depending on OS X 10.7 Lion or later acceptable? The statistics I've seen leave it and later with just over 50% market share, but it is only increasing. More technical users (e.g. those likely to be using Dolphin) likely have a higher adoption rate.
  • Is removing the "Fullscreen Resolution" option acceptable? This is now handled by the main resolution setting, as entering fullscreen is just equivalent to resizing the window.
  • Are there any other configurations or edge cases that I don't handle?

After the review, please pull into branch:
master
