This sounds like a wise solution and also well thought out to usage. How will multiple messages get dealt with? I like how notifications work in GNOME and how they stack for informative messages. For confirmative messages, this seems like it could work, but still needs to be thought about if their is blocking allowed, and/or some type of queue for dialogs and/or how will queued messages be shown in UI. Mickey, has this been thought of and/if so, what solutions? Also, how can we help more on this ?
