It does look like a bug, but not in
getCrossPlatformLookAndFeelClassName().  That just returns the name of the
cross-platform look-and-feel class, which is the string
"javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel".

The problem is not related to the Metal look-and-feel, or for that matter,
to any look-and-feel.  When the Frame is set to Undecorated, the window
takes up the entire screen when it is maximized.

It is affected by calling JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true), but
that is just a convenience method that asks the look-and-feel to provide
decorations and also sets the Frame to undecorated(), assuming that the
look-and-feel can provide the decorations.

You can find more information on the problem here, including a workaround
for the problem:
