Update your comment as you no longer look at monitor.

Done.

+  // same monitor as the window being activated, then we reduce the size of the

+  // thread which has a fullscreen window is active. Thus affecting the way
+  // these windows interact with the taskbar, i.e by obscuring it, causing
+  // autohide to not work correctly, etc.

Your comment here is still a bit vague. What we're doing is making it so the
taskbar shows up if we lose activation and are fullscreen.
