Open Ubiquity window at outside of browser window
I think it's good to have an 'Option Setting' to open Ubiquity window at outside of browser window.
Currently Ubiquity window is opened inside browser window and hides a lot of browse area. Opening Ubiquity window on Desktop (outside of browser) makes user to be able to see both Ubiquity window and browse area.
I think it may be feasible by using openPopupAtScreen() instead of openPopup() in Ubiquity.openWindow() method (but I don't know well about XUL...). I usually patch ubiquity.js like above and have no trouble; Ubiquity works fine with outer-window.
# I'm Windows user so I'm not sure whether it works on other platform.

Inappropriate?Great Idea! in this way ubiquity can become a quicksilver alternative ... like the Humanized project by Aza Raskin and Atul Varma

Inappropriate?now i'm trying to create a program like Ubiquity but running on Windows and platform allows authors to create commands that have a scope of Window, not browser.
I’m happy
