      Window.setAlwaysOnTop API has been implemented so that user is unable to
      tell whether his Window has actually became always-on-top or not. This
      is because many platforms don't guaranteely support (even when declared)
      the support for always-on-top windows. However, it is very bad practice
      to have such an API without the means to get the accomplicity feedback.

      I propose to add a new method, Toolkit.isAlwaysOnTopSupported, which
      returns either three-state value("supported","not supported","unknown")
      or two-state value("supported", "not supported" and "unknown" are
      merged).
