Hi folks, i was also thinking about that messaging problem, e.g. for new email the noticator in bottom right side is nice, if i look there here and then, but i had the gmail notoifcation in the panel near the clock in 2.x so if i was away from desktop and came back there was this and perhabs a green envelope of the ubuntu messaging thing which also showed up for pidgin messages.
So since this was cool but sometimes annoying and the new empathy beeing nicer and gnome-shell beeing the nicest thing around i thought why not have a extension or application providing a messages icon near the clock again, which shows per default "!nothing!". I could add in some settings dialog to have certain messages which come via libnotify * to be sticky e.g. mail or im from certain persons like your chef * to make the icon blick (for even higher prio things) * to add a bubble or thing with the message subject (for special email which came in) * to have an number there with unread thins which passed all filters etc. i think it would just be nice to define myself which things i want to be instant notified. cause in my workflow i have a lot of info comin in and not everything should be allowed to disturb me!
