Describe the bug

When I click "Settings…" in the MonitorControl menu bar menu, the Settings window opens but does not come to the front. It stays behind other app windows, so it looks like nothing happened until I find it manually (Cmd-Tab / Mission Control).

MonitorControl v4.4.0, macOS 27.0.1, M5 MacBook Pro.

Steps to reproduce

1. Have another app's window open and focused (e.g. [Chrome]).
2. Click the MonitorControl icon in the menu bar.
3. Click "Settings…".
4. The Settings window opens behind the other app's window instead of in front of it.

Expected behavior

The Settings window should open in front of all other windows and take focus, as it does for other menu bar apps.

Anything else?

Possible cause (from reading the v4.4.0 source, not verified on macOS 27): the app is a menu-bar-only app (LSUIElement = true), and "Settings…" calls settingsWindowController.show() from sindresorhus/Settings. That calls NSApp.activate() on macOS 14+, and activation there is cooperative, so the system may ignore the request when the menu-bar app isn't already frontmost.
