Pinning works for the following Window Managers Windows XP Explorer, Windows Vista/7 Explorer, and Gnome, there are a few others, but I haven't tried them all I didn't test on KDE. I'm assuming that I'd need to make a Qt port of it for the pin feature to work, I'm currently using Tk/Tkinter.
I use Open Box and I know that overrideredirect doesn't work, but I knew that before I start this project.
Its not big issue, it just gives it a cooler look is all, not a big feature.

In Ubuntu, the Window manager itself gives the pin feature. Just right click and select 'Always on top' 'Always visible on workspace' if you use multiple workspaces.
