[FEATURE] Always on top but hide when in fullscreen mode

[sitiom]

What is the request?

I have recently learned of ElevenClock which replaces the system clock and is also written in Python. One interesting feature I found there is its ability to hide in fullscreen mode despite it being an always-on-top window sitting on top of the taskbar.

Why is it useful?

I remember you sent a yasb config that places the workspace indicator on the bottom where the taskbar is located.

However, for it to be unobtrusive, one would have to use TranslucentTB or RoundedTB (or both, which I do). Some people may not want this and want it to look integrated into the taskbar like how ElevenClock does.

How could it be implemented?

Looks like the hide on fullscreen functionality is implemented here: https://github.com/martinet101/ElevenClock/blob/main/elevenclock/__init__.py#L1231

This method appears to be getting called in a silly loop in the background. Can probably use this as a reference, but I likely wont implement this until the tauri rewrite of yasb is near completion

So ElevenClock's solution is "hackish"?

I really like the i3bar behavior:

Show on Windows key down, hide when windows key is released.
