well, yes, thats right, but without the timeout option, though...

anyways it would go like this (or at least did in kde 3.0):

--------------------------------------8<--------------------------------------

#!/bin/bash
kio_uiserver
jobid=`dcop kio_uiserver UIServer newJob myApp false`
dcop kio_uiserver UIServer messageBox $jobid 5 "my message" myApp yes no
dcop kio_uiserver UIServer jobFinished $jobid

--------------------------------------8<--------------------------------------
