Please don't get me wrong, i don't mind the script but since this will  
likely mean a bright bar on top of the fullscreen window and given that  
pdf reading should be an important aspect for touch devices and that  
okular isn't very "touchy" at all:
Would it not be better to "fix" okular presentation mode, eg. by only  
react on clicks in two stripes on the lower vertical edges (so "clicking"  
on the left border moves one page back, on the right stripe one page for)  
and thus permitting to slide the finger towards or across the panel to  
berak the fullscreen mode? (I even considered to "fix" that in bespin ;-)

As a general solution i'd still recommend an input only (or translucent  
ARGB) window - i mean: you neither want to waste pixels, nor have a bright  
colorful bar above your movie, yesno?


Just sayin' *shrug*,
Thomas
