Hmm... Amarok has it in status bar. That's what I tried to do to too - insert 
the label which is used by Dolphin in statusbar.
KStatusBar keeps its layouting system private, so I can't directly control it. 
And that's good i think ;-).

But perhaps you are talking about that yellow colored widget in amarok - that 
appears from bottom and stays for some time or until it has mouse focus...

Well, actually I went the similar way and implemented QGraphicsItem wich 
behaves alike (although it doesn't take mouse focus into accout yet).
It is commited to SVN, you can see it in use in KAtomic - just complete some 
level and it'll popup.

Just an experiment. But frankly - I like it :-).
