Re: [Ayatana] [Bug 357150] Re: Regression vs notification-daemon: Notify-osd doesn't deal with a large number of notifications well

My opinion is that an application that needs to send so many notifications in a short period of time is doing it wrong. If there is so much input the user should be aware of then the app should tell it to open it's GUI instead of libnotify-spam.

Given that there is another dup of the "long queue" issue, I'm cc'ing the Ayatana list.

Ayatana team, for reference:

MPT, can you point to a spec for the 9.10 queue throttling behaviour, that captures the ideas around discarding notifications? Also, do we have a list of applications which can generate 10's of notifications (like a notification for every new message in the inbox when you start up mail) that we can fix (to send a summary message in those cases)?
