Personally I prefer the hidden divs for a few different reasons as well. However, thats not going to solve your problem either. If the window is minimized, you wouldnt see that either.
What if you window.focus() first (just before the popup)? What happens then? Or maybe a window.moveTo(0,0) or window.resizeTo(screen.width,screen.height) function might bring the parent window back up? Just a couple of things to try, I havent tried any of them. ..:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.

Window.open... Weird results. I would do an absolute div that when show it self at the highest level once the timeout is about to occur. It won't catch a users's eye, but it will have the same desired result. Or even a confirm box that pops up to the user. Not as pretty but fast and easy to implement.
