Highlights
"full window content" mode for FlatLaf window decorations (Windows 10/11 and Linux)
Full window content mode allows you to extend the content into the window title bar. This means that the content pane (and glass pane) of the Swing window is extended into the window title bar.

You can try out "full window content" mode in FlatLaf Demo.
Press the "expand" button on the right side in the tab area.
