From my main window, I create a few WS_OVERLAPPED windows with the main window
as the parent.  These are not WS_CHILD, WS_POPUP etc.  I want them always in
front of the main window, kind of like MDI, but not quite.

Anyway, how do I find them all from the main window?  I tried EnumWindows but
it doesn't seem to work - in the callback function, I checked each window's
parent against the hwnd of the main window.  It found nothing.  The docs say
it finds all *parent* windows, so perhaps that's not what I want.

Then I looked at EnumChildWindows, but the docs say it is only for child
windows, so I guess that means WS_CHILD.
