Unfortunately, I do not know the English very well. What does the
following wording mean?

"If this is above, the **frame's window-system window** is displayed above
all other window-system windows that do not have the above property
set."

Reference: Elisp manual, 29.4.3.2 Position Parameters, c.f. "z-group".

Best regards,
Kevin Vigouroux

I installed that rewording, and I'm marking this bug done.
