I would suggest either:
 1) Create a new option for fullscreen window ID.
      MPlayer will then use this for fs and you get the messages.
 2) Create a new option for window ID of the frontend.
      If this variable is set, WndProc can call SendMessage to send
      the messages along to the frontend's window.

I'm not sure which would be better.

Either way, you need a new option.  Perhaps you could add it as a
suboption within the VO.  I'm also not sure if this would be better than
a new global option.
