Can't it work that way all the time? So the window size stays static
(whether fullscreen or not), but the real content window shrinks as the menu
window expands?

Or what about the menu drawer coming _into_ the window, overlayed on top of
the real content window? Like a page being turned over or something. Just
grey out the background (real content). I know this might not work if the
menu options selected changed how the content looked, and you wanted to
check the new look as the options were selected, but it would work for other
apps.
