I agree.  With the new MultiTOS WF_BOTTOM stuff,  all you really need
here is a key shortcut that does precisely the same as clicking on the
mover bar,  i.e. top a window if it's not on top,  bottom it if it IS
on top (bottom is a way of cycling,  but it is sort of the reverse of
what ^W normally does).   I used '.' on the num pad for this option in
Edith.  Come to think of it,  I haven't checked what it does with very
old TOSes...
