commandline-params and ideas for further graphics

Hi Folks,
I'm using YoWindow on my 2-Monitor-Desk and scheduled it to start and show on the 2nd screen every hour, for 10minutes.
here are some wishes and ideas:
Functions:
- the yowindow turns grey when loosing focus: could you make an option to disable this feature?
- my yowindow starts every hour and shall open on the second monitor. is it hard to implement some command-line parameters which open the window with some presets (position, fullscreen or make the app auto-close after 5min)?
Graphic Features:
just to say a word: i like the yowindow very much, it's already pretty good. the following points suppose to be a kind of inspiration (but only if you need any!). I don't request any radar-feature
- here in germany people use to make big fires on easter ("Osterfeuer") and on the shortest night/day of the year (Sonnenwendfeuer). Maybe such a fireplace will integrate well in yowindow on these days too.
- what about a bright star at the horizon on christmastime (december)?
- the birds are pretty cool already, what about birds in V-formation flying into the south in autumn?
- what about a Santa with sleigh flying over the hut on 24th of december?
- in the night you could show not just a shooting star from time-to-time but the meteor-showers (corresponding to their date) like the Leonides, Perseides, etc. The information about it could be stated in the inspector-section like "Tonights-Event: Leonides (15meteors/hour)"
- bat's flying in the dark
- in clear-summer-evenings there are often balloons traveling through the sky across the country.
