Quirks

• When always-on-top is enabled, the window is not guaranteed to be on top, not all linux desktop environments are guaranteed to respect the request. Additionally some OS components such as taskbar, start menu, alt-tab overlay may still draw on top. This may also vary on linux depending on the desktop environment used.
