Do you mean it should be modal like the Options window or have an option in its right click menu "Always show on top"?
Why do you think it should be on top?

No, I don't think it should always be on top.

I think that when it's already opened and burried under lots of windows, and I click the Help/About, the About window Window should move from the burried position and come to the front, not do nothing. 

Basically, if help window exists, move to front.
If help window does not exist, create and move to front.

OK, but you see the window on the taskbar. That is one click on the taskbar button to move it to top. Against two clicks via Help > About Firefox.

That's not the point.  I forgot that it's open. It doesn't even beep at me.  I don't look at the potentially 12 items in the task bar to see if that window is opened before I click on.  Do you?
