just some brain.dump() of stuff that may be missing in the popup text:

- basic alignment, could be useful to show data in a grid-like fashion. may be 
unuseful though, as you can just print "Label: Value" without caring too much 
of spacing and alignment

- does the image always need an alt text? i'm thinking of amarok's album art

- font colors. ktorrent uses it to discriminate between upload/download. but 
then you could run into problems like black on black or similar issues. maybe 
defining some "color codes" (much like the kde color classes are doing) so you 
say "this text is warning text" and so on, and let the implementation deal 
with it?

nothing else comes to my mind right now... thoughts?

Bye,
