I am no specs expert but I can tell if something works as expected.
Below you find the test results of several window managers.

Work as expected (plugin gui opened in ardour/mixbus stays in foreground):

compiz
openbox
metacity
xfwm4

Work in an alternative, usable way (plugin gui does not stay in foreground in
every case of user interaction with main window but the plugin gui is always
just an Alt+Tab away because it is part of the windows list):

icewm
fvwm
fvwm2 

Main window of ardour/mixbus must be minimized or synth gui must be closed and
reopened for the synth gui to be accessible, no return via Alt+Tab:

kwin

> Thomas above explains that we don't.

So if the conclusion is already set there's no need to discuss. My private
conclusion: I will have to switch to another window manager that you may claim
not being standard-compliant - though I wonder at so many window managers
seeming to belong to this group if your claim is true, see above - but that
keeps windows accessible at least.
