Description

I am using your nice library for a dashboard.

To keep the error handling simple I channel all errors to the same place. It would be nice to be able to show the current error in a popup using the same select loop, showing it over rest of the layout.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement a popup widget that can overlay the existing layout using the select loop. Examine existing termui widgets for patterns and architecture.
