X11 clients recognize that window shuffling is actually a window management function, and more properly part of what your window manager should do for you. And many window managers do - my resource database could contain the entry "*wm_option.autoRaise: on" and awm would autoraise everything for me. So the short answer is that the current emacs can't autoraise itself under X10, and unless you do it yourself, it most likely won't because all the current work is going into X11 support, where self-autoraising is neither needed or appropriate.
