For the record, this solution finally doesn't work in my case.

As I want to launch an app in the background from a modeless
stack in LC IDE, the systemWindow property is too restrictive.

It hides the LC menus, all the answer and ask dialog
are behind my main stack window.

So, the one-line solution was:

shell( "open -g - a Myapp" )

The -g option keep Myapp in the background. Works beautifully.

Regards,

Thierry
