When an application asks to be raised by sending a ConfigureRequest with the 'Above' stackmode, we currently honour this request and raise it.

It would be nice to have an option to suppress this behavior and only set the activity flag on this window instead. This might be a global option or one that can be defined with a winprop, or both.

    In fact not raising is now suppressed (the window is marked 'active' instead).

    However, in some cases you *want* the window to be raised, for example in case of pinentry-qt4 (execute 'getpin') and wicd-client. Being able to configure this, for instance by way of winprops, would be desirable.
