How to do the opposite of global floating window

I can't figure this one out. I have a window defined in my nib that is a subclass of NSWindow. When my app starts the window is created and displayed. My goal is to have this window simply float over the desktop and under all other windows at all times. The user never needs to directly interact with this window. I have tried to set its level and order but when I click my apps icon in the dock this window comes to the foreground as the frontmost window. I want it to always, no-matter-what, be "floating" just over the desktop. Also, if that is possible, is it possible to change if it floats over the desktop and desktop icons to having it float over the desktop but under the desktop icons?
