Useful - I like the way a user can close the message once read.

I'd like to propose a feature - an expiration time/date for the message. If the admin message is used, as in a given example, for temporary downtime/scheduled maintenance messages, then it doesn't need to be shown after that time.

It's more of a nice touch than a necessity as admin can manually delete the message after it serves its purpose. Thanks.

You can implement that with some PHP code in the PHP field, e.g (untested): 

  return time() <= strtotime("2007-12-09 08:00");
