Justin, That's exactly correct. MySpace does exactly this with their notification confirmation workflow, and it works fine with our application. Orkut creates a div which does not work well with the flash embed.

I posted this question in Orkut Discussion since that's a more appropriate forum and where I meant to post this anyways: http://groups.google.com/group/opensocial-orkut/browse_thread/thread/fdf752f596ca3d59#

I have heard that if the notifications use an iframe in someway, they can get in front of the flash objects.

I noticed a problem with the notification confirmation and our app. The notification does not play nice with wmode="window" flash applications. The div for the notification is hidden behind the flash and only the form elements are visible. We have to use wmode="window" because "transparent" and "opaque" both have rendering issues for our application.
