In order for such a window to appear on the Taskbar, you need to change the 
parent window to be the Desktop as well, ie:

    void __fastcall TFormShowWindow::CreateParams(TCreateParams &Params)
    {
        TForm::CreateParams(Params);
        Params.ExStyle |= WS_EX_APPWINDOW;
        Params.WndParent = ::GetDesktopWindow(); // <-- add this
    }
