Pardon the subject, I wasn't sure how to title this

I think xbmc lyrics is a pretty cool script, but my music taste isn't all that mainstream, so few of my cds are registered with the lyrics wiki
But if I knew that a song would be listed I'd be more inclined to run the script more often. Regardless, it got me thinking that it would be really cool if I could run xbmc lyrics in the background, and have a little indicator light up on the screen if lyrics were available for that particular song.

So, since this would be more of a script request, I figured I'd have to make it related to xbmc core:

Allow for an event-based button be placed on the left side of the screen, like a Bookmark. The text & color of this button could be customized via system calls that python could make in the background.

xbmc lyrics could then run a search per song against the lyrics wiki, but it would open up for other possibilities:

* Show an envelope in the title banner if you have new mail in a pop account
* Alert you when a new T3CH build is out
* Web page watching: Alert you if the word "xbmc" shows up cnn.com
* Say "Go to bed !" when it's 3am :-)

etc...

Thoughts ?
