Hey guys:

As a user, I like it... sounds very reasonable.
If it is integrated, the code should be made available for other
projects (e.g. for downloading in galeon) as well, or maybe it should be
implemented on a gnome-wide basis, since there have been discussions for
introducing toasters for non-crucial error messages and the such.

Take care!
