I too am affected by this bug, and does make interaction with notify-osd
and Ubuntu in general somewhat counter intuitive as notification bubbles
often cover window controls (of maximised windows specifically) and
other UI elements.

I would suggest however that implementation of click-through, while
elegant is not a long term solution, as it precludes direct user
interaction with notifications. For example it would be impossible, so
far as I can see, to click on a new mail notification and open up said
e-mail(s) in the default e-mail client or webmail provider. A more long
term solution might be to implement a default user interaction (perhaps
middle mouse button) to close the notification bubble. I admit that is
not as elegant as click-through, but it does allow for future
developments in notification user interactions.
