The approved API:
java.awt.Window(modified method):
/**
* Sets whether this window should always be above other windows. If
* there are multiple always-on-top windows, their relative order is
* unspecified and platform dependent.
* <p>
* If some other window is already always-on-top then the
* relative order between these windows is unspecified (depends on
* platform). No window can be brought to be over the always-on-top
* window except maybe another always-on-top window.
* <p>
* All windows owned by an always-on-top window inherit this state and
* automatically become always-on-top. If a window ceases to be
* always-on-top, the windows that it owns will no longer be
* always-on-top. When an always-on-top window is sent {@link #toBack
* toBack}, its always-on-top state is set to <code>false</code>.
*
* <p> When this method is called on a window with a value of
* <code>true</code>, and the window is visible and the platform
* supports always-on-top for this window, the window is immediately
* brought forward, "sticking" it in the top-most position. If the
* window isn`t currently visible, this method sets the always-on-top
* state to <code>true</code> but does not bring the window forward.
* When the window is later shown, it will be always-on-top.
*
* <p> When this method is called on a window with a value of
* <code>false</code> the always-on-top state is set to normal. The
* window remains in the top-most position but it`s z-order can be
* changed as for any other window. Calling this method with a value
* of <code>false</code> on a window that has a normal state has no
* effect. Setting the always-on-top state to false has no effect on
* the relative z-order of the windows if there are no other
* always-on-top windows.
*
!* <p><b>Note</b>: some platforms might not support always-on-top
!* windows. To detect if always-on-top windows are supported by the
!* current platform, use {@link Toolkit#isAlwaysOnTopSupported()} and
!* {@link Window.isAlwaysOnTopSupported()}. If always-on-top mode
!* isn't supported by the toolkit or for this window, calling this
!* method has no effect.
* <p>
* If a SecurityManager is installed, the calling thread must be
* granted the AWTPermission "setWindowAlwaysOnTop" in
* order to set the value of this property. If this
* permission is not granted, this method will throw a
* SecurityException, and the current value of the property will
* be left unchanged.
*
* @param alwaysOnTop true if the window should always be above other
* windows
* @throws SecurityException if the calling thread does not have
* permission to set the value of always-on-top property
* @see #isAlwaysOnTop
* @see #toFront
* @see #toBack
