I found tests for the foreground window in dlls/ddraw/tests/ddrawmodes.c,
testcooperativelevels_normal() and testcooperativelevels_exclusive().  I didn't
find other tests related to z-order.  Please let me know if I missed them.

As we've seen with this bug, a window may be the foreground window without
being front-most, in particular if it owns other windows.  Also if it's
non-topmost and there are topmost windows.

I'll try to extend the tests to test some possibilities with respect to actual
z-order viz-a-viz owned, topmost, and other windows.


With respect to a WGL extension, were you thinking of something like an
alternative to wglMakeCurrent() such as wglMakeCurrentFullScreenWINE()?

Test z-order in ddraw tests

To my surprise, SetForegroundWindow() has nothing to do with z-order, at all. 
It just affects foreground/active statuses which are related to focus.

This patch modifies the ddraw tests to check z-order.  In all of the places
that used to call SetForegroundWindow(), I now also call SetWindowPos(…,
HWND_TOP, …).  In all of the places that checked the window returned from
GetForegroundWindow(), I now also check the window order.  I also check the
z-order immediately after attempting to set it to verify that it's working.

The tests marked "todo_wine" in testcooperativelevels_normal() are due to
ddraw/wined3d setting the window topmost for fullscreen and, in some cases, not
restoring it.

For testcooperativelevels_exclusive(), I make sure neither window is topmost
before proceeding.  I also create two other windows, one topmost and one owned
by the main window.  I test that both remain in front of the main window even
when it's fullscreen.  Wine keeps the owned one in front (which is at the root
of this bug) but, as expected, promotes the main window to topmost, bringing it
in front of the other topmost window, when it shouldn't.
