Public bug reported: This is not a real bug, sorry for the spam :)
On October/November 2008 in GNOME desktop-devel-list was discussed the inclusion of "libnotify" and "notification-daemon" package in GNOME Desktop modules list.[1] During that discussion, was proposed a different way to handle notifications[2], similar to indicator-applet. The prototype is here [3] Now, on desktop-devel-list we are talking about future direction of GNOME Desktop (to move from gnome-panel to gnome-shell, to kill or not to kill applets and similar) but nobody did yet exposed the "notification" issue. I think that indicator-applets developers should start a thread on GNOME desktop-devel-list, proposing indicator-applet and notify-osd as playground for GNOME 3.0 notification system: note that GNOME 3.0 is planned for Spring 2010 and currently there are no proposal for a new notification system.
