That's a pretty long bug to ask people to read over but... The original comment about posting to dev-platform seems to be simply asking that a thread be made to warn people that this change is coming, not for any discussion as such. It should have happened at the time but it's a bit late for it now.
There is a comment towards the end of the bug asking whether backing out a single part of the patch instead of the whole feature would solve the problems, we probably need an answer to that before considering whether a full backout is appropriate. It's not totally clear to me what the new feature gives us (i.e. what we would lose from desktop Firefox if we backed it out but left it on the b2g branch) and what has regressed as a result because it is spread over too many bugs. Is it possible to summarise that? On Tue, Oct 8, 2013 at 2:48 PM, Marco <mar.castelluc...@studenti.unina.it>wrote: > In bug 782211, native notification systems support was removed.
