Background app that can display windows

I have an app that needs to run as a background process.  It has 
preference UI that can be accessed from a prefPane, but requires no 
UI for normal functionality.  From time to time, it may be necessary 
to present a window or panel to the user to provide him with some 
information.  Similar to the way the bluetooth daemon works, or when 
sync services asks you about conflicts.  Setting the LSBackgroundOnly 
in the Info.plist appropriately runs the app without a dock icon, but 
it seems to suppress any windows that I want to display.  Does anyone 
know how to work around this?  Thanks,

Ben
