What a horrible idea.  Please PLEASE don't make it the default, and 
certainly make sure I can yum remove it (because I *will* remove it).

I get enough spam already, I don't need yet another well-known way
for spammers to hack into my system and put ads in front of my face.
I also don't need yet another Surprise! distraction popping up on my 
desktop.

Besides, we already have a way to do this - it's called e-mail.
Or twitter.  Or usenet.  Or facebook.  Or the web.  Or IRC.  Let people 
choose whether to get notices or not, and how, don't force it down their 
throats the way some big companies do.
