Why have things like Skip(Taskbar|Pager), but not StaysOnTop?  The argument 
against StaysOnTop has always been that it doesn't belong client side, and 
should be done through window manager configuration.  This is quite 
frustrating, I agree, but why include thinks like sticky and 
on-all-desktops if we don't include StaysOnTop (the next logical step).

I'm bringing it up *again* because this is something that shouldn't be left 
out.
