window is undoable, queryable, and editable.
This command creates a new window but leaves it invisible. It is most
efficient to add the window's elements and then make it visible with
the showWindow command. The window can have an optional menu bar. Also,
the title bar and minimize/maximize buttons can be turned on or off. If the
title bar is off, then you cannot have minimize or maximize buttons.
In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.
