So am I. Put the needed window on tag "scratch", make it floating and use toggleview().
if you need to focus it use this function instead of toggleview():

void
focusview(const char *arg) {
        Client *c;
        int i;
        toggleview(arg);
        i = idxoftag(arg);
        if (!seltags[i])
                return;
        for(c = clients; c; c = c->next)
                if (c->tags[i])
                        focus(c);
}
