Hello Susan,

I suspect that your problem is not related to the code that keeps
gnome-terminal windows on top.
You should check with the Mozilla/Firefox developers.  I'd be quite
surprised if Firefox doesn't have its own window management code for
all Firefox windows and dialogs.

Here are some resources where you might be able to get more help/information:

like yours or add a bug report):

I hope this helps,
