Hi,

the top_application support resides in libosso (to be more specific,
see libosso API documentation or libosso.h and
osso-application-top.[c|h] from the sources) . It's supposed to be
there for the purposes of bringing the target application to
foreground and to allow the apps to notice/do something  useful when
that happens with the corresponding callbacks, but as it's deprecated,
I think using it in new applications might now not be worth it.
