One reason for keeping them separate is that it'd be easier to miss what
the alarms/reminders relate to if they've been folded up.

Another is that you might want to snooze one of them, but not the other.
I'd be fine with snoozing all or none, but with calendar reminders you
might have per-event snoozing rules, which at some point we should
probably respect.

Title:
  [Notifications] Competing notifications when two alarms kick at the
  same time

Bug description:
  A cousin of bug #1354406

  Some of the early testers are hitting a use case that we didn't
  account for, that of multiple alarms set for the same time.

  Indicator-datetime currently tries to pull up notifications for, and
  play sounds for, both notifications. That's happening by accident and
  is clearly not the right approach.

  I can think of a couple of approaches we might take:

  -- SOLUTION --
  If 2 or more alarms have been triggered, the notification at any time will display:
    Title: 2 Alarms
    Subtitle: [Label 1] 10:00, [Label 2] 10:01

  The sound of the first alarm will be played. If they have the same
  time, the one that has been created first.
