But in the mean time....BUGGER-OFF! What you ask for would work fine if the dialog is not system-modal, as only system-modal dialogs are kept on the top of the z-order. Otherwise, the dialog will be modal only to the application it belongs to, and will hide when you switch to another application and then reappear when you switch back. Gambit
