I slightly disagree here. The problem already exists, as there is not only InfoPopper, but also applications that have home-brewn popups. One reason to have this functionality around is not to encourage apps to use it, but to have it under full control when they do. By arguing against an API like this, you actually create the problem you would like to avoid. If I haven't convinced you yet, just use Windows for a while. The loss of control over the popups is hurting the user experience. Bye, Axel.
