[TxMt] Growl instead of tool tips

Just joined the mailing list so sorry if I missed something important.

Adding growl notification would be something that I would use. I use  
Growl notification from Cyberduck for near real-time notification.

e.g. "Edit w/TextMate" from Cyberduck. Hit save in TM and switch to  
Safari. Hit reload when the upload complete message comes from  
CyberDuck.
