Hi, Well, I was stuck in the "kicker context" when answered first but indeed you can use conky (that's what I do by now). Conky allows to have windows in the foreground and it's easy to make a switching script that you can launch from the kicker dock. This can be used in any desktop environment ! If you need some script samples (switching script and conky stuffs) I can upload you some somewhere.
