Hmm, maybe adding some "suspendstack" and "resumestack" handlers to
your stacks that will "palette xxx" on resumestack and "toplevel xxx" 
on suspendstack?

Quick thought, not tested... ;-)

That may require to make a custom "palette"-look (decorations set to 
tempty)
so noone will notice your trick, since toggling window types will flash 
a bit... :-)
