I assume this feature is really about implementing this:
https://live.gnome.org/Design/SystemSettings/Notifications

Is that right?

I'm not sure I understand this instruction..  Is this in the code or

This is great!  However, I do have a question.  Why does the link:
https://live.gnome.org/GnomeGoals/NotificationSource

have this message:

This is only a proposal at this time, and not approved for project-wide
application.
*This should not be applied before being officially turned into a GNOME
Goal!


*
in a red banner?  I assume that it is in fact an approved GNOME Goal? :-)
Just wondering..
