I can't offer any help for now, since i didn't test Jaffa's mud-builder, maybe he can chime in here? :)

Re: WANTED: Tiny window-opener
 
So, I would like someone to make me a Fremantle version of this.

I need a Fremantle window that is fullscreen but has a way to get to the dashboard (the task manager).

Is the transparent fullscreen icon in the lower right that I see in the fullscreen browser window a special browser feature, or is that a feature of the window itself?

I suspect that this will be problematic. I want to put a Xephyr window inside this window, and anything that I run inside that window will take over the input, so there's no way to get out of that screen. In Maemo 4 and below, you could hit the task switcher key and get the menu, but in Fremantle you can't do that anymore.

So I need some way to first get out of fullscreen mode and then I can switch windows, or some way to switch windows when in the secondary window manager...

Ctrl+Backspace won't work?

Browser feature, but Nokia have put out a varient that lacks transparency effects in its MaemoPad source code, found in maemo-examples.

Not really fluent on the DBus-GLib C API, myself, but "dbus-send --type=signal --session /com/nokia/hildon_desktop com.nokia.hildon_desktop.exit_app_view" works from a shell...
