There is no way for a window to hint that it should be excluded from switchers. Only inside KWin there is a windows-specific rule to exclude windows from switchers. The problem here is clearly that your window is still accepting focus. If it doesn't accept focus KWin will skip it. So verify with xprop and xwininfo that the window is really excluding focus.
