Do you have a use case for this scenario ? There are probably some I cannot see, but maybe could we solve them another way.

A "toolbox" that must remain all of the N document windows, no matter which is raised.

I propose that rather than the client having to send a directed acyclic graph to describe this situation, it only has to send a tree but it can edit it . Before the client raises any document window it reparents the toolbox to the new top-most window.

Same question, do you have a use case for a popup surface that you would
reparent? For our current use case (menus, do we have another one?) this is unlikely (afaict, I am not a toolkit guy).

The exact same situation, because a client needs to be able to turn a "popup" into a "transient", for instance if the user can pin the menu.
