That would be fine too. I would certainly value very highly anything that keeps the current task 'in view' - to remind me what I am supposed to be doing (rather than getting distracted - eg by posting to the MLO forum!!)
What would be good (perhaps and I don't know whether it is possible) would be to actually add the gadget into the Windows title bar itself and to have it follow the window that has the focus.
