It was indeed easy to build a newer mupdf, and with this fullscreening  
works a charm with both ewmhDesktops hook and the Layout.Fullscreen  
module. Having an app to play with also made wonders. I realize the  
problem!

You were of course trying to fullscreen a floating window. I should have  
thought of this at once, but this is not supported by the fullscreenFull  
modifier. To get this behaviour, you also need the fullscreenFloat  
modifier, which is left out from the default because its implementation is  
kind of hacky. I'll try to make the documentation be more explicit about  
this (but not before I come back from holiday ;)

I attached a minimalish example config that makes it work, an has your  
desired behaviour of returning floating fullscreened windows to floating.

You are also right about this being independent from the mplayer issue.
