> Pragmatically, you can set a repeating NSTimer of (say) 0.1 secs and poll the panel visibility. The processing load in minuscule, and the UI lag is basically undetectable.

That's a bad assumption.  Short, periodic timers can muck with the system's power management, ultimately wasting power.

I don't have a better solution in this case, but don't adopt this approach while thinking it's without flaws.
