Moblin 2 Four Corners plugin signs of life

I've been doing some work to create the "four-corners" compiz plugin which is intended to be the primary contextual navigation mechanism in Moblin 2. In this example screencast, you can see that initially, the corner buttons are on screen and available. The terminal window launches, but is not full screen and so the buttons are still available. Then, when I set the term to be fullscreen, you see the buttons animate off-screen until I return to non-full screen mode. Finally, I launch a movie. The buttons remain visible and overlaid until I make it go into full screen mode, at which point they again move out of view until I return to windowed mode

This blends in very well, i really like the idea. Sort of the "cashew" thing from kde4, but nicer. They should modify the thing in kde4 like this, same as they did on plasma, simplifying the control icons, from colored to monochromatic.

Anyway, very nice job. Awaiting the day my desktop GUI will be as 'chromeless' as possible.
