 - start file read
 - finish file read
 - start file write
 - finish file write

- (various/message-filtered) confirmation messages
- (various/message-filtered) alert messages

 - anything to map to (various) browser events - egL loading, 404, 301, 500, etc, element-has-focus, element-lost-focus, element-disabled, enabled, etc

- (various/name-filterable/generic) application (script/job/service) launch/start
- (various/name-filterable/generic) application (script/job/service) lanch/stop

- (various/name-filterable/generic) on sig interrupts, sockets, etc.

 - this way users can get quick reminders as to whats starting and whats finishing in heavily multi-tasknig environments (eg: call centres, support, etc)

 - ideally a complete set of voice files from HAL (2001) or StarTresk (orig series) would be my fave flavas.
