Comment 32 for bug 438536

I think the best solution would be to put the notification in the highest
free position, so that if there are more notifications at the same time,
they show up underneath each other.

I think it would also be nice to have them slide up if a higher notification
disappears.

The best option by far would be to have a config tab in the
appearance-window, so everybody can choose his/her own favorite behavior.
