Does anyone think this could be used to query the desktop Slack app to mirror the information in the dock icon, i.e. "no messages", "messages", "direct messages"?

Unread status is managed remotely (sync'd between devices), so you should be able to query it with an API like https://api.slack.com/methods/channels.history

I wouldn't want such a distraction on screen at all time though.
