I have a problem with an application that creates a initial popup window and starts another application. The window for the second application is completely covered by the initial popup window.
Investigating the problem, I found that the popup window is not managed by the window manager and no other wine or gnome window can go on top of this window (even on top windows).
Making the popup window managed works for me (Fedora core 3, gnome, metacity). I don't know in other configurations. See attached patch.
I am attaching also a small program to create the popup window.

I think this patch will cause bad effects for tooltips as they should be non-managed. Alexandre has said he will be looking into this area soon, but it involves checking the code on as many different window managers as possible.
