Skinned VLC always on top problem

I had a problem to get skinned VLC player on top.
I.e. I said to use skinned mode, applied a skin (specifically it's skin-deep.vlt from the skin download section).
Restarted the player - the skin has successfully applied.
Then I set "Preferences -> Video -> Always on top" checkbox.
Restarted the player.
Player started, but not on top ("Always on top" in right click menu is checked though).

Is that a specific skin issue? Or maybe skinnable interface itself?
Is there a way to make it work properly?

'Always on top' was not implemented by the skin engine in vlc1.0.x

It is fixed in vlc1.1 (just about to be released)
