sounds sane an easy enough to do. _KDE_TABBOX_CONTROL_REGION would contain a 
window id and coordinates relative to the window? (this would prevent having 
to determine where the window is on screen, something only the compositor can 
fully know, correct?)

i could add these two atoms very easily to plasma-device for you... i know 
that's the trivial part, but hey .. every little bit helps, right? ;)

given the performance implications of this, i think we sould try and push for 
it to be in PA2. it's an important part of the user experience.
