[Bug 1185480] Re: Have set "Limit Notifications" (…before having a single grouped notification) to 30, been notified only for the last tweet of each timeline update

 

** Description changed:

  I tried to set the "Limit Notifications" value in dconf-editor to a large number (30 here for the test, but tried less too).
  According to the description of this value: "After limit, only show a summary notification."
- 
  
  Expected behavior currently:
  At each timeline update (each few minutes), if less than 30 tweets were fetched (as set), show me ALL (individual) notifications.
  If more, RATHER show me a single notification telling me "X new tweets" (e.g. "34 new tweets" for example).
  
  What happens instead:
  Correctly, I don't have the notification "X new tweets" as less than 30 tweets are coming here in my test, at each tweets fetching (timeline update).
  But rather than having 8 individual notifications for the 8 new tweets for example as excepted, I just have one: the one for the last tweet got.
  
  Ideal behavior, according to me (just for the bonus):
  At each timeline update (each few minutes), if less than 30 tweets were fetched (as set), show me ALL (individual) notifications.
  If more, firstly show me THE 30 NOTIFICATIONS AS DEFINED AS MY LIMIT -AND ONLY AFTER- a single notification telling me "X additional new tweets" (e.g. "4 additional new tweets" for example).
  
- 
  ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
  Would be cool to allow us to set the desired limit in a preference panel added in Birdie, by the way.
  But it's already planned that, I'm sure! ;-)

Title:
