I am running the development version of Feisty with all the latest
updates and as far as I can see the bug is still present. Although, I
can manage to get it to work in one particular case whereas it never
worked in Edgy. As I understand it, the following command should make
the libnotify message bubble appear yet it does not do so in Feisty:

zenity --notification --text "Bubbles, bubbles everywhere but not a drop
to drink."

Yes, the above command does make an icon appear in the notification tray
area, but the text argument is not displayed unless the mouse pointer is
moved over the icon. However, I can make it work correctly by typing the
following:

zenity --notification --listen
message: A little nonsense now and then, is relished by the wisest men.

Hopefully someone can resolve this before the Feisty release. Yes, it is
a minor cosmetic bug but the functionality could make for some much more
user-friendly scripts as they wouldn't need to steal focus.
