AFAIK you cannot force this behaviour, you have to ask the window manager
to do it and hope that it honours the request. I reckon that you need to 
call $window->set_transient_for($parent) and the wm should do the right
thing - apparently at some time some wms didn't do this properly.

Does $rb->group() do what you want - or $rb->set_group() ?

Perhaps you need to block the signal when you destroy the parent?
