A suggestion: accept standard -geometry parameter to position/size the
message. As an alternative we can use symbolic position/size: -topleft,
-topcenter...-big, -small

A wish: add icons to the left (or right) of the message. Like: "uptime |
dzen -info" to show a predefined icon near the message. I guess this can be
done in a external script using xsetbg (or the like) and then dzen...

I missed this kind of program too :)
