It's an interesting problem to solve. I suspect others would find
detachable overlays useful too.
I hope you want to develop this feature as open source software.
It's also in scope for a Google Summer of Code project. In that case a
student could work on the project for 12 weeks during the summer. More
requirements and design details need to be fleshed out before it can be
packaged as a GSoC project idea though.
Let me know if GSoC sounds like a good route to create this feature. Not
sure if it fits your timeframe.
