Thanks for all the info, I might as well give it try in the near future. To my mind the crucial thing is that you emit the info on DBUS. Hacking a solution to emit a notification (outside the panel) is mostly trivial. For example -and for my case- I stole an example based on python that listens on DBUS and uses the system's notification daemon (mako) to display a short-lived notification every time the layout changes :
The solution based on the panel is of course much better and tidy, and as I said I will give it a try in the near future.
Thanks again for your plugins.
