I sat down to do this and then had so many questions ! I assume this is
a pop-up box which could be opened when any input from the mouse is
required ? What operations would this be required for ? I guess it would
be opened via a python function, and then tested via python functions ?
Would it need to be overlayed on the model view, or an outside window ?
When/how in editing would we pop it up ?

Any thoughts...
