I just ran into this issue with the notifications for media being synced
being stupid on my SD card slot.

These things should either be focused and upfront, or special cased like
audio/brightness adjustments are in osd-notify so that these (very
important, for users of FAT) notifications can _NOT_ be missed.

Remember the fragility of the system most people use on their SD cards,
here, guys.  And if indef. notifications break notify-osd, then notify-
osd is incorrectly designed... the solution would be to support parallel
notifications for indefinite things, and serialize the timeout messages
(if you absolutely _must_ but that really does work quite horribly on my
system).

Bug description:
gnome-mount 0.8-1ubuntu1, Ubuntu Jaunty

When a removable storage device is taking non-trivial time to unmount (flushing 
the cache), gnome-mount puts up a "Writing data to device" notification asking 
you not to disconnect it while that's happening. Because it is persistent, 
Notify OSD renders this notification as a suboptimal fallback alert box.

Instead, gnome-mount should use a progress window containing the warning text.

It may save time to fix bug 325315 at the same time as this bug.
