Frankly speaking, I think I'd have a lot more trouble faking a notification area
icon/indicator or whatever we want to call it these days than a popup, from a
website point of view. I'm talking about all those weird banners that have
Windows-like window borders. These popups can be just as easily spoofed using
Ubuntu-styled window borders.
