The SWT.ON_TOP style seems to work fine for Shells. However when I apply
this style to the workbench window (by hacking of course) the workbench
window remains "on top" only until I resize it a few times, then it
behaves like any other window. Can someone explain why this is happening?

Heres the code I used to apply the style.

at the bottom of WorkbenchWindow's constructor...

setShellStyle(getShellStyle() | SWT.ON_TOP);

I would post this on eclipse.platform.swt. You will get a getter answer
there.
