I agree, but I should have been more precise. The title was supposed to 
show in a floating widget over the mainwindow, anchored to a corner.

I say "was" because I made a quick test and wasn't convinced by the 
results, so I think I will show the warning in the save bar [1] instead. 
This mean there will be only one string:

"You have modified many images. To avoid memory problems, you should 
save your changes."
