If the XTopWindow doesn't have focus when the toFront() call is made, then it
won't move at all.  I would expect the toFront() call to send the window to the
front whenever it is called.

When calling XTopWindow.toFront, the API code calls Window::ToTop[0] which calls
Window::ImplStartToTop[1] which in turn calls Window::ImplToTop[2].

Window::ImplToTop includes the following check:
  if ( !mpWindowImpl->mpFrameData->mbHasFocus &&
       !mpWindowImpl->mpFrameData->mbSysObjFocus &&
       !mpWindowImpl->mpFrameData->mbInSysObjFocusHdl &&
       !mpWindowImpl->mpFrameData->mbInSysObjToTopHdl )

If this check is false, then the call is just ignored.  Commenting out the first
line of this check causes the issue to go away (and is what we've had to do, as
we need this API call to work).

There should probably be something like a TOTOP_IREALLYMEANIT flag (or perhaps
TOTOP_IGNOREFOCUS would be more appropriate) which the API call could pass
through which would bypass the above check.
