Alerts and other modal windows did appear by default in a frontmost tier in
NeXTStep. 10.0 gravely lacked the feature. 10.1 replaced it with a new, much
better way of notifying user that some background application needs something
(see Release Notes, I don't remember the method names just now, it's the
jumping icon in Dock).
In apps ported from NeXTStep there might be some remnants which would make
such windows go on top in 10.1, but they should be pretty rare -- it was
framework, not application stuff.
