A combination of 2 and 3 might be useful -- add a .desktop key which
apps can set, and if an app doesn't set this key and then does show its
first notification, the user is prompted. So app developers are
encouraged to set the key (so avoid their users being prompted for
whether showing notifications is allowed), but forgetting still
maintains the principle that embarrassing apps will not show a first
notification unprompted.

(I expect that some part of the documentation/askubuntu question ought
to be a prominent search engine hit for the search "why does my app ask
for permission to show notifications" or similar, too.)

Bug description:
  While I like having the calendar on the phone I do not want an audible notification for the events. 
  Would we simply add the calendar app to the Notifications page?
