I think there is no patch. You could extend Client with 'Bool
ontop' and extend dofloat() in the loop with:

if(c->ontop) {
        XRaiseWindow(dpy, c->win);
        XRaiseWindow(dpy, c->twin);
}

You may want extend Rule as well to define specific
classes/instances of clients on top or a toggle function.

But note, I don't see any use for it, so don't expect such
behavior in mainstream dwm.
