Filter window according to different window types.

I think we could try expanding the the float and other rules which take window identifiers to also take Window Styles, which includes a style for popup windows. I don't know whether or not this style is respected as widely by Windows applications as the "pop-up" window role is on Linux, but I think this is the closest that we will be able to get to what you are describing for now.
