Am I totally misunderstanding this issue???
As I understand it / complained / bug reported... I think most people don't care whether the notification comes in the form of the new notify-osd system or the old way with the orange spiked ball or red arrow that show up on the panel.
The issue I think MOST people are quite irritated with is the decision to go with a popup or popunder which is just plain evil. I don't know of anyone... ever.... who has liked such a thing.
Secondary to that issue is that there is no PERSISTENT notification of updates once that window is closed which is most suredly will be.
I think everyone would say whole-heartedly... go ahead with the notify-osd system, but don't open a window and don't remove the persistent notification on the panel.
