What about putting up a notification when someone goes into fullscreen
mode that notifications are enabled and will be displayed, as a reminder
that they might want to disable them?

The subthread "solving the 'user forgets about presentation mode' problem" (in other words, solve the right problem) in this thread has been created just to ask the same question :) You can see above the response by Praveen:


"hmm.. not a bad idea though one must consider that this one initial notification will be always displayed whenever one goes fullscreen. so if i watch a lot of movies or am review/editing a presentation i would be going to fullscreen and back so many many times that each time if i get this notification i would be annoyed"

That's a good observation. But at least once per opened application does not seem overkill.
