This is more of a GUI concern, and I wouldn't expect a bundler like JDeploy to be able to do something about this.
An appropriate GUI toolkit should be able to integrate with the native fullscreen.
I briefly used the webview for java library [1] and it does the right thing because the browser handles it. JavaFX also supports [2] native fullscreen if appropriate integration is used. Not sure about Swing/AWT etc.
