KDE question - window focus

I've been an OS/2 user for some 18 years and I switched to KDE some 6 
months ago.  I've known Linux and various other *NIX's since early days but 
only in CLI.

My question:
OS/2 Presentation Manager had a functionality when one could control a 
window without actually transferring focus to it.  Example:  One is 
composing an E-mail based on info viewed in a web browser.  The mail 
windows partly obscures the web browser window.  One can press <Ctrl> and 
while holding it move the browser slider with the mouse so that proper 
content would appear in the visible part of the browser window and yet the 
mail composition window will stay on top and ready to accept keystrokes.

Is something similar available in KDE?

Thanks
Frank
