If I remember correctly I suggested to implemented a twisted-notifier in
pyNotifier as I do not like the idea to have a feature in nf_generic
that in most case is not used ("un-used" code that requires cpu time)
and that is not supported by the other notifier implementations.

What about implementing a twisted notifier like nf_gtk or nf_qt? I do
not know twisted; is that possible?
