I did try it, but not correctly. Just tonight a gave it an other try, but it
does only part of the job. It brings the window passed to gdk_window_raise
to the front, but only if the application is active. I think shane wants it
to be on top, also if the application is not running in the foreground
currently. So how can you force the task switching bit?

I haven't tried it, but iirc the application.bringtofront in Delphi brings
the application to the foreground. That is the functionality I want.
