Sorry for being unclear. I want NSApp to behave normally, i.e. when the user
hides it (with Command+H) the menu bar and all windows _except this one
window_ should hide. I do know when this floating window is supposed to be
on screen and when it's not; it's displayed for a few seconds in response to
a hotkey - but I don't want to have to delay the hiding of NSApp until the
window has been ordered out (if the user decides to hide it when the window
is on screen). I hope this clarifies my goal.
