Re: solution for notifications

[Koppányi Tamás <kornenator gmail com>]

if there would be a chance to make something always visible, i'd more likely go for the dock on the left side f the screen, but then again, this would make gnome-shell just like any other shell that came out recently (incl. unity). i think it would also be a good solution to make a hover icon of the notification bar visible in the bottom right corner.

Exactly. It's a fine addition, but still doesn't solve the "problem". I put it between quotation marks because it's not a problem to me, but it's something I've been asked by at least two people when explaining them how the Shell worked. Apparently they're gamers and when they're playing (either in fullscreen or in windowed mode) they don't pay much attention to anything outside the window, or they're watching TV while using their computer. The thing is that they want their notifications to be noticeable as soon as they look at the screen, without having to interact.

Maybe there could be an option to make the message tray never go away if there's a notification? To cater this kind of user?
