Re: [Ayatana] GSoC '10 Idea : NotifyOSD improvements



As a lay-user if Ubuntu, I would propose reconsidering the idea of ethereal notification.

To this day, *every* time I have moused over the notification, it has been with the intention of dismissing it (only to realize that I can't dismiss it). If unintended dismissal is such an issue, then perhaps the notifications should not appear while the user's mouse is within the area where the notification is to appear. The notification could be queued for display once the cursor leaves that area.

Thanks,

Sohail Mirza

We've been pushing this 'ethereal notification' idea for a long time. Has anybody outside Ubuntu picked up on it? Why or why not? Is it a direction that should be continued on, or is a course-change required?
