There must always be an option to disable such popups altogether. Nice if you can do \
it for all KDE apps at once. I personally find popups more annoying than helpful. \
What do I care of "a new device in range" while I am editing text in an editor. What \
do I care if someone in my IM just signed on when I have nothing to say? Or even \
worse while I am giving a presentation with a beamer! Email notifications distract me \
from my current task. I want to read email when I have time for it and not when it \
arrives (that's why it's email and not IM). Everything that suddently pops up and \
requires immediate interaction (like clicking a button) is annoying. As for the new \
huge "tool tips" over panel buttons in 3.4: they looked nice first time I saw them, \
but did not provide any real functionality. So after I had seen them I turned them \
off because they were just too annoying.
