So now TheIde or the help windows could have a "keep on top" option somewhere, so e.g. you can still see the help when you switch back to the editor window.

BTW - if you have an assembly that accidentally or otherwise has a path setting with something like C:\ in it, theide consumes rather a lot of CPU time for quite a while as it scans for packages (I think. - I started theide and the hard drive became busy and no window appeared; after a while I used task manager to shut theide down). A low priority improvement that could be made here is to show a progress window with a cancel button and to reduce the CPU load somehow (or yield more often) if the process doesn't complete in say 15 seconds. I had to wait many seconds for task manager to appear so I could shut theide down when this happened to me recently. Not sure why really, so maybe this is a Windows problem.
