Stick-It! lets you set any window you choose to be always on top of other windows. Right click the tray icon and select the Stick-It! menu item, or double click the icon, and the next window you click will be set as always on top. Repeat these steps to return the window to normal.

I believe if you look at the Stick-It! source code you will see that I use almost that exact code. But Stick-It! is nice and shiny, and has audio visual effects! Besides, most people do not use AutoHotkey and releasing it as a compiled exe greatly broadens the potential user base.

Why not simply use an AutoHotKey script?
Here is an example for setting WinKey + A to toggle always-on-top:
#a::
WinGet, currentWindow, ID, A
WinGet, ExStyle, ExStyle, ahk_id %currentWindow%
if (ExStyle & 0x8) ; 0x8 is WS_EX_TOPMOST.
Winset, AlwaysOnTop, off, ahk_id %currentWindow%
else
WinSet, AlwaysOnTop, on, ahk_id %currentWindow%
return
