Hmmm. What if my usual usage is ALL screen space occupied by apps ALL THE 
TIME? How do I see some popup on the desktop if the entire desktop is covered 
by window.

And I WANT the systray in the panel at bottom right. I also want to tell the 
plasmoid to put it's popup somewhere else, not in the default place.

Am I asking for the impossible?
