Actually we do have some idea in that direction. The bubble should fade in/out
based on the mouse-pointer proximity to the bubble. That way we would also get
smooth fades on-hover, without the user having to wait for the bubble to fade
in order to look-through. There are two approaches one could persue:
1.) trigger the fade in/out when the mouse-pointer enters/leaves a certain
threshold-area around a bubble
2.) make the transparency/look-through a function of the mouse-pointer distance
This makes for an interesting UI-expermiment.

Bug description:
This is an idea for enhancement.
First, the new notification daemon totally rocks, many thanks for that!
After using it for a while i'm wondering, if maybe it would be possible to
adjust transparency of the message, depending on how far mouse is - the closer
mouse would get to the message, the less visible it would be. I think that
would smooth out the current toggling behaviour (message dissappearing on mouse
over).
