[Mekk <390508@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello from 2020. Under KDE Plasma those timeouts work perfectly
(including delicate way of signalling that they are on their way towards
expiring) and I use them gladly.

Regarding purpose: I frequently use notify-send in my scripting to
trigger notification that some build, tests, compilation, or sth
finished. And, for example, info about finished compilation should flash
and disappear, but info about failed major build is another story and
should persist much longer.
