Yes, why not :) But transparency is not a substitute for moving it.

If it uses tabs, the tabs should be completely detachable and dockable
(that means both detaching a tab from one window and docking it to
another one must be possible -> this, btw, should also be possible for
other tabbed window layouts).

If multiple windows can be opened, a cascade/compose/something function
might be useful. But which what's this will be arranged? the ones of the
parent dialog, of the parent application, or all what's this? should
they be grouped? by application, by desktop? I think these questions
have to be discussed together with the kompose and plasma people.
