Common OSD widget?



Hi,

I'm looking at the possibility of adding an OSD to Totem
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=442925), similar to the one
now in gnome-control-center/gnome-settings-daemon for display when the
mixer volume's changed
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=383066). There's also a bug
for getting one in gnome-power-manager
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=400844), which makes me
wonder if it might just be better to write a common widget and put it
somewhere like libegg (and eventually GTK?). There's already a
GtkWindow-derived object for it in gnome-settings-daemon
(http://svn.gnome.org/viewcvs/gnome-control-center/trunk/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-media-keys-window.c?view=markup), so that could probably be used as a base. However, it would be better to use themed icons, rather than drawing a picture on screen manually using Cairo, as the code does at the moment.

I just want to know what people's thoughts are on this, and if they're
positive, what I should do to go about getting it working.

Cheers,
Philip
