Title:
  "Always on top" windows go into the background after the dialog

Status in Unity:
  Incomplete
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Here i will us specific applications as an example, but i have checked
  with others as well. Using specific ones for clarity.

  To replicate:

  Open a file manager
  Start a video in VLC
  Set "Always on top" on VLC window
  Observe that you can continue browsing files in the file manager, and the VLC window will remain on top of the file manager
  Press delete on any file
  The dialog box to confirm the deletion will open

  What happens:

  VLC window will go below the file manager window, and will stay below
  even after the dialog will go away

  What i expect to happen:

  Dialog should go over the VLC window, but the file manager should not
  go over it.

  alternatively if that isn't possible

  VLC window should become visible again as soon as the dialog gets
  dismissed.
