[vtkusers] vtkWindow always appears on top of any other java awt components

[Sebastien Jourdain]

Hi Kevin,

the way to solve that is to set the LightWeightPopupEnabled(boolean)
flag on your popup-menu and combobox that are going to overlay the VTK
panel.
Although if you are using the latest JVM this is supposed to be
managed. But I don't remember if it's 1.6.latest or 1.7.
