It didn't make it in time for 2.0, but the draft version currently says
this about progress windows:
        
        "A progress window may appear in the panel window list if it is,
        or may be, the only window shown by an application. For example,
        the file download progress window of a web browser may remain
        after all the browser windows have been closed.
        
        "Otherwise, a progress window should be raised above the
        application when the application window itself is selected from
        the window list."

Cheeri,
Calum.
