Description
-------

Closes: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=265456
Partialy closes: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=272768

"On screen display" notification when changing activities.
Displays the user icon and the name.

It is heavily based on KWin's DesktopChangedOSD and KRunner's Quicksand.

This could be as well implemented on KWin, but i did as a kamd plugin for fun :P.

For the time being i think it is not correct to force such plugin (it would be cool is kamd's plugins were managed via systemsettings) without an option to enable/disable, but anyways, here goes nothing. Code cleanup is somewhat needed.


This addresses bugs 265456 and 272768.
