A second call for attention is needed here. This bug is causing a lot of disagreement. Why not be more constructive and e.g. let the community vote on it? People basically do not like the pop-up or pop-under, and do not like to be informed of updates with a delay. It is the enthusiasm of these people that made the success of ubuntu until now; their consensus is important and it's not very obvious to everyone that the new solution will actually improve the understanding of users. Users typically close windows that they don't want to be bored by. In my very humble opinion the change should be rolled-back and postponed to the "k" release; OEMs can still re-enable it via gconf. In the meantime a broader discussion to find a better solution should be done. Moreover, the new notification mechanism had very few testing, and already some important bug, so it does not seem a good idea to me to include it in a stable release given that bugs in it may affect the security of the system.
