OpenMRS is an electronic medical record platform. Basically we provide an API and data model for storing and analyzing patient-level data, and a reference application that's used in 40+ mostly-developing countries. The system includes "core" code and pluggable "modules" that allow very powerful extensions of functionality, and UI-level customization.

We are redoing our UI from scratch in OpenMRS version 2.0 (see OpenMRS 2.0 User Interface Redesign). We're still in the early stages, and it's probably a bit early to do what I'm proposing here, but here are some potential code-jam ideas:
...
We've explored doing this as a "taskbar" panel at the center-top of each page through this mockup and this prototype implementation.
Is this a good approach in general? If not, what alternative approaches should we consider? If so, what are some points we should keep in mind while implementing this UI element? What standard interactions does it need?
