Package: libnotify-bin
Version: 0.5.0-2
Severity: important
Consider this usage:
notify-send --urgency=critical "Low battery"
In my system, that notification expires after about 7 seconds. Now, the
specification states:
"Critical notifications should not automatically expire, as they are things
that the user will most likely want to know about. They should only be closed
when the user dismisses them, for example, by clicking on the notification."
This issue might as well qualify for a "grave" severity, since an unattended
critical notification could incur in data loss in some scenarios.

This has to be handled by the desktop environment, not a notify-send issue.
