+1 I agree that all notifications should appear in the same place. In the event that two notifications appear at the same time, i.e. if you change the volume at the same time that the song changes in banshee, the asynchronous osd (banshee) should be moved down and the synchronous (volume) osd shoul

I agree, the positioning of the majority of notifications looks wrong, unless I just happen to be adjusting the volume at the same time - which is unlikely. It's probably a lot of work but if they can ever be made to behave like in the video here http://www.markshuttleworth.com/wp- content/uploads/

I also thought this was a bug, and have been waiting some weeks in the hope that it would be fixed in an update. It makes little sense and doesn't look very good, having the large majority of my notifications not directly below the panel, but about 2 cm below it. If anything, shouldn't user-trigg
