Sorry that I wasn't clear enough. You can always add useless things or things
that don't work to plist files, but in this instance, by "not doable" I meant
you couldn't restore the normal window behavior or, in other words, disable the
"always on top" feature of this "simple browser window" (which, IIRC is a modal
window that can't be covered by anything else).
