Does anyone know a way to keep window on top in OSX? I've tried Afloat and works with about 15% of the apps out there. I know that you can snap windows to different corners but I often need to be able to keep one window (IM for instance) atop of another. I can't believe there isn't "pin window" functionality in OSX, natively or third-party.
Thanks!

Unfortunately, it is against Apple's Human Interface Guidelines, ever since pre-OS X, MacOS 8 and even pre-System 6 and 7 (see the Original HIG PDF). Even modal dialogs were/are frowned upon. Hence, the difficulty.
