ah, that one. yeah, that would require some support from a compositing window 
manager (e.g. kwin). it would be possible to emulate this with resizing and 
moving the window, but it wouldn't be perfect and would have really bad 
performance.

the challenge with the compositing window manager support is that we'd need 
some way of marking these windows as to be animated and from what location.

we can do this with the applet handles easily because all of that is done by 
plasma on the canvas.

so .. probably doable, but a lot of work and would include modifications to 
both libplasma and kwin.
