[Bug 533652] Re: critically low battery dialog "cancel" button is meaningless

So, just to confirm; there's two separate issues here:

  1. a _bug_, in notify-osd, in issuing drawing a dialogue with [Cancel] and [OK] buttons, when there should just be a single [Dismiss] button
  2. gnome-power-manager, in requesting a non-expiring notification.

Which are exasperated by two further issues:

  a. g-p-m willing resends the (non-expiring) notification, thereby DoS'ing the user's desktop. (bug #579245)
  b. g-p-m will issue the OMG CIRTICAL!! notification even when the battery is at 100% (bug #516023)
