Interesting. Though windows are different then those dialogs.
Lets keep this thread alive since the discussion for this one isn't over.
I'm only "sparking" it, you and marco probably need to agree on a good api
and how to allow window stuff.

</div>i don't think an application window and a tooltip window will have much \
useful<br> overlap.<br>
<br>
i am tempted to say "use Dialog" but .. i like that Dialog remains very<br>
purpose specific so we don't need to try and make it do too many tricks at \
the<br> same time.<br>
<br>
so maybe the answer is "re-use Dialog", or rather the code behind it. it \
does<br> pretty much everything needed (blur, borders, etc.) i recommend \
implementing<br> such a window class in C++ that is made available to QML inside the \
tooltips<br> implementation. that way we don't have to worry too much about \
upfront design<br>
questions: make it work well for tooltips. then we can see what that ends up<br>
looking like and either base a design off of that or even lift that code out<br>
directly and promote it to a shared QML component.<br>
