That reminds me of Jesse Warden's Debugger window he uses in his Cairngorm examples. I looked at this post just yesterday as we needed to create a custom alert message window that is shown from the Command onFault function.
What I did was add a new ArrayCollection object to the Model called errorAlert. Then in the Main.mxml file I created a ArrayCollection "collectionChange" event listener that handles any change to the errorAlert. In each command I add create an error object and add that object to the errorAlert like model.errorAlert.addItem(myObj). This fires the collectionChange event and from Main.mxml I pop up my custom alert component. There seems to be no real elegant way to throw custom message components from the Command in Cairngorm, but I like your way Demitrios, it might be cleaner than listening to changes to the ArrayCollection object. I did think of one advantage of using my method, you could create a queue of the alert messages and do clean up with by firing the "collectionChange" event when you removeItemAt from the ArrayCollection. This could produce and handle multiple alert messages layered on top of each other.
