Here's my initial reaction to the package:
Cute, well thought out. It isn't too intrusive, and blends well with the themes I use.
Now, how do I get them to appear outside of my blind spot ???
I go delving through the system menu, nothing there. Great. Yet another Gnome thing who's configuration is hidden.
So google kicks in, and I find this bug. I definitely understand mbt's position, suffering from blind spots in both top & bottom right regions.

Could the positioning, when done, be based on dividing the screen area in 9 regions, and not only limited to corners ? All the osd settings on my external monitors offer this... not to mention flat screen TVs.

An option to entirely disable the notifications needs to be included. They are definitely something I do _not_ want to see when doing a presentation in front of certain audiences.
