This is a long existing annoyance on MacOS.  Basically the problem is that QT
on MacOS doesn't have the same parent - child window behavior as the other
operating systems.  When I first ported KStars to the Mac, all the windows such
as Ekos and other dialogs, would disappear behind the star map if you clicked
on the star map since they were all independent windows.  I was able to fix
some of them by making them "tool windows" but not all of them.  Some of them
still disappeared behind the starmap.  So I had to make all windows we want in
front of the starmap "always on top" so they don't disappear.  The drawback to
that is that they can appear in front of dialogs.  So it is trading one issue
for another.  But moving a small window to get to a dialog is much less
difficult than the whole starmap.
