--- Comment #1 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
That's kind of a cool idea. A KWin effect would be necessary for this.
However, the devil's in the details. What if a file picker is invoked from the
keyboard, not the mouse? What if an app opens a dialog independent of user
action? Then the dialog appearing out of the pointer would feel very weird. And
I'm not sure a KWin effect could distinguish the difference.
This is probably something you should prototype yourself to see if you can work
out all the issues. Once it's good enough, submit it to KWin!
