Well for me this is working (again) with 52.x. on a Gnome3 DE in testing
so I don't have a clue why this isn't working on your side or other
installations. The libnotify support is still a bit buggy it seems.

So maybe we need to add some more depending package(s).
You can try the notify function by open the development tools
(Ctrl+Shift+I) and fire up the following command in the console.
> Components.classes["@mozilla.org/alerts-service;1"].getService(Components.interfaces.nsIAlertsService).showAlertNotification('chrome://branding/content/icon48.png',

This is working in 52.1.1 but not in 45.8.0.

Not directly, but #682208 is merged with #798848. By this all merged bug
reports with 682208 are also closed.
