Floating TopComponent without tab

Hi, 

I use a TopComponent as a Midi editor window. There can be several Midi editor windows. 

I can float a Midi editor TopComponent using WindowManager.setTopComponentFloating(), but it is shown as a tab ("NewSong-User1") within an enclosing window, as shown in the picture below.


I'd like that each MidiEditor TopComponent be a distinct floating window (so no need for tab system). Is it possible ?   

Side question, how can I access the enclosing window of the floating TopComponent to call Window.setAlwaysOnTop(true) on it ?
