On OSX with, when Eclipse Neon is on full screen mode, any secondary dialog opened from a dialog/wizard is not visible, as if it was in the background. 

Steps to reproduce:
- toggle the full-screen mode on Eclipse
- File>New>Project>Java project
- on the wizard, click on the "New..." button to create a working set. The dialog is not visible.

Another case:
- toggle the full-screen mode on Eclipse
- in a Java project: File>New>Class
- click on "Browse..." to select the Superclass. The "Superclass Selection" dialog is behind the "New Java Class" wizard and both are locked, so it's not possible to move the one dialog away from the other.

This problem seems to appear on MacOSX El Capitan (10.11), I don't remember this on previous versions of OSX.
