- we don't want one panel setup / deskwidget per _NET_WM_DESKTOP (e.g. to save memory or whatever)<br>
- panels and desktops appear different depending on _NET_WM_DESKTOP<br>

- trigger an update for the panel/desktop type XWidget<br>
- copy the composite output into a buffer<br>

- those will likely not change the apperance (alot) as<br>
- the effect is usually only displayed for a short while<br>
- one desktop can remain "live"<br>
- we just ruled out a parallel solution...<br>

i like neither hiding (why should one?) the panel nor keeping it global (as long as it's not fully interactive as well)<br>
