Title:
  Please use a dialog instead of libnotify for hard disk failure
  warnings

Status in GNOME Disks:
  Expired
Status in “gnome-disk-utility” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When gnome-disk-utility detects a failing hard drive, it uses libnotify to 
warn the user. It assumes that the notification will look and behave like one 
of notification-daemon's notifications: a simple, unobtrusive popup with a 
single action button that says Examine. With notify-osd, this is not the case. 
Instead, we get one of notify-osd's fallback alert dialogs, and many of these 
dialogs appear at once (stacked on each other). This is not optimal. Instead, 
gnome-disk-utility should display its own dialog box.
