Well, this happens anyway at the moment, no?
The issue is that the failure notification *does* pop up on the desktop that
you are on, but does not follow you back to that application.
i.e. In the current example, let's say I fire up KMail on desktop 2 and go
over to Konsole in desktop 1. Then I decide to switch to 4, etc. Well
sometime during the switching a message box popped up -- unfortunately on a
desktop that I haven't been back to since. Now, to be able to use KMail, I
likely have to first find that dialog and tell it to proceed.
I'm not sure you're talking about the same thing.
