A reminder sounds more like a notification than an urgent window. But
n.b. the window type might still be the wrong level, I'm now vaguely
wondering if you might be wanting system tray balloon notifications for
which there are typically high-level apis.
http://standards.freedesktop.org/systemtray-spec/systemtray-spec-0.1.html#balloon
(note that gtk then has its implementation/wrapper for systray support,
GtkStatusIcon, i.e. an even higher level might be appropriate for
toolkit-using emacs)
Ading systray support to emacs was discussed in the context
of daemon mode a while back, maybe it's worth another look now.
