  • Enable "Above all windows"
  • Maximize the window, or set height to 100%
  • Hide
  • Show
  • Opening another application: that application covers ddterm window

It seems that an already maximized window can't be made 'above' at all, even with .unmake_above() + .make_above()

extension: fix 'above all windows' after unmaximizing

It seems that a maximized window can't be made 'above' at all, even with
unmake_above() + make_above(). So at least fix it when unmaximizing.

I have plans to write an xterm.js-based terminal emulator using GNOME Shell's UI (instead of the current implementation with a separate Gtk application). It should solve all window management issues, like this one.

However, it won't happen soon, as it will likely be a separate project, written (almost) from scratch.
