i read the discussion at that link, but was still wondering what the
specific uses cases were for waiting for callback responses from the
notifications. other than 'it would be useful' (which i agree, it
could be) do you have any specific examples that this would enable?

on the Windows side, the equivalent growlnotify command currently
waits for the GNTP response so it knows if the message was sent
successfully or not (-OK or -ERROR response), but then does not wait
for any callback response. (that is mainly because the Windows
growlnotify currently only allows specifying url-based callbacks and
not socket callbacks, so there is nothing to wait for in the first
place). it wouldnt be too hard to add this functionality, but without
understanding the need, it could be a case of adding unnecessary
complexity for a small gain.
