If I understood your example above as denoting that the user is not
currently seeing the dock because it is in the "middle" of two
windows, then my answer would be that the shortcut using DockRaiseLowerKey
will raise the dock so that the user will see it.

That is what I understood from reading the code (I also did some
brief experiments with two windows and the dock). Of course I may
be wrong. But so far that is what is happening with me using this
shortcut and it matched my (maybe naive) expectations.

I haven't tested the clip because I never use it, but as the 'raise'
and 'lower' actions use the same function as the dock, I expect
that the answer is the same in this case.

We all do our best, given the circunstances. 

Being a wmaker user for 10 years I will be the first to scream 
if my wmaker breaks. And when it breaks it is just a matter of 
un-breaking it again.
