This is wrong. _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE is a semantic hint; If your window
manager is making all such windows "always on top" or now allowing you
to iconify them, and you don't like that, you should fix your window
manager.

Also, please use diff -u.

(Aside: why doesn't gtk set WM_TRANSIENT_FOR as well? "Dialog", to me,
implies transience. But perhaps there was a good reason for this
change... didn't we use GTK_WINDOW_DIALOG at some point?)
