This is really obnoxious.  I thought I'd get used to it once gnome3 and
unity came out, but it's only made me more frustrated as time goes on.
I miss the old gconf way of doing things, where a user could change
anything they disagreed with.  This seems more like locking the end
users into the lowest common denominator of UI/UX in an attempt to fit
in with The Big Two.  The whole idea seems counter to the linux
philosophy.  I don't want to beat a dead horse, but I do want to restart
a discussion.  I think this needs a control panel with user customizable
items like time to display, opacity, size, sound, position, and possibly
the ability to dismiss simply by moving the cursor over it.  However,
I'd settle for just an X to dismiss.

Title:
  notify-osd should have a close button

Status in notify-osd package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: notify-osd

  As simple as that. The new notification system works fine, but it really bugs me that I'm forced to wait for those little messages to fade away by themselves. Should I suggest this somewhere else?
  Thanks
