You have 2 choices.
First, just don't automatically raise a window when clicking in it.
I.e. use ClickToFocusRaisesOff and MouseFocusClickRaisesOff (actually
this is a default). To raise a window in this case you may bind some
keyboard or mouse bindings to decorations or even inside a window (just
not a plain click using mouse buttons 1, 2 or 3). In 2.5.x, there are
more settings to control auto-raising on click.
Second, try "Style * RaiseTransient", seems to do want you want if the
application correctly sets Transient flag. Also play with Style options
LowerTransient, StackTransientParent. In 2.5.x there is additionally
RestackTransients command.
