I recall this request. I think it sounds interesting, so I'll add it
to my TO-DO list. I wonder if this could be done as a module (which
is how I'd prefer it to be implemented)? Perhaps after some of the
additional module communication information that I mentioned in an
earlier note (sending titlebar window ids) is added.
