6963	display warnings in a less intrusive way than popups	flaimo	team	"as a poweruser i tend to work rather quickly with keyboard-shortcuts and a graphic tablet. whenever i miss selecting a certain node with my pen, but then press a command shortly afterwards, i get a popup windows with a warning that a certain action can't be applied. this gets rather annoying after a certain time, since you know what the message says it says anyway, but you have to move the mouse/pen or hit the enter key to make it go away.

i would rather like to see warnings be displayed in an unintrusive overlay, which doesn't have to be clicked away manually, bud rather fades away automatically after 1 or 2 seconds.

real popup messages should only be used for real errors or where a certain user interaction is needed."	enhancement	closed	major		Core	tested	fixed	popup	thomie avarab@… mjulius
