At OLS this year, users wanted user space notification of OOM for cgroup memory controller. When a group is about to OOM, a notification can help an external application re-adjust memory limits across the system.
Keeping some memory reserved for handling OOM, this scheme could be extended to handle global OOM conditions as well.
