The problem was the WindowStaysOnTop hint - applications should not use it, in 
most cases it just means that the wrong flags are used. WindowStaysOnTop tells 
the WM to put the window in the keep above layer while all other windows of 
the application are in the normal layer.

So to everybody running in such problems: feel free to post your usecase and 
we can help to give you the correct way.

Cheers
