GIMP is an especially tricky case where we probably never can get
proper behaviour on Windows without some drastic surgery to its inner
plumbing because it needs to use cross-process transient-for.

(A window opened by a GIMP plug-in, which is a separate process, can
be set as transient for a window opened by the main GIMP process. And
in some cases, that plug-in window might then request the main GIMP
process to open a window which should be transient for the plug-in's
window... I.e. both cross-process and chained transient-for
relationships.)

For transient-for to work between windows opened by the same process,
there is hope that the problems on Windows will eventually be fixed.
