My first thought was to use wmctrl to set the clock to as "always on 
top."  This worked for most things.  However F11 on mozilla buries the 
xclock. You might try it on iceweasel to see if it will work.
See:

I had to install wmctrl first using apt-get, then wmctrl -l to get the 
name and then wmctrl -r -b add,above
