Craig,

I posted a little script over on OmniFocus Extras that does something like this using Growl. The script takes the selected OmniFocus item and displays a Growl notification. You can configure Growl to make certain notifications "sticky". I'm not using the script myself so I haven't put it on my scripts page. (A law of software development says that data or programs that aren't used cannot be successfully maintained. That was the root cause of the Y2K problem.)
