option-click hides apps

Is there a way that I can programatically (or otherwise) override the option-click in another application hiding the current foreground application behavior? I'm writing a...I suppose plugin is the most descriptive noun here...that allows (currently only) option-drag to move any cocoa window around (http://sf.net/projects/clickdrag/). One of the most useful applications of this would be to option-drag windows belonging to other applications around without a, hiding the current application and b, bringing that window to the foreground.

Right now, I'm subclassing NSWindow and having my subclass pose as NSWindow. I suppose what I really need is a way to pass the event to the other application without bringing it to the foreground. The behavior would be akin to command-dragging the title bar of a window that is not the front window.

Thanks,

Steve
