Lightbulb Wish: a child HUD window separate from the main EQ2 window

Yes, I know this is a largish request, and may be not at all feasible, but it's something my wife and I have wished for for some time, and I've been given a glimmer of hope by the new Logitech G15 support going in.

I have 2 monitors, and play maximized on one of them while running vent, parsers, web browser on the other. I would dearly love for EQ2 to be able to spawn a HUD window separate from the main window, so it can live on another monitor and display whatever information it's been modded to, just like the G15 keyboard window. It wouldn't need to host actual interface pieces as I'm sure that would get really messy programatically. If it were a just single moddable interface piece like the G15 I would hope it to be at least a little less horrible to implement.

As I envision it, the child window would want a next page, prev page and close button, but would otherwise pass any and all input to the mainhud, and be read-only like the G15 display.
