Sure, I know, and I don't expect to solve it that way. I just pointed out what is the problem from the users POV. > what i think could be done is, when exploring old notifications with the > tabbar, they could be marked as "read" and the subsequent time they will > all appear collapsed, while the "new" ones expanded as usual Yes, that's what I suggested. > they are not kept "forever" but half an hour. what is still to be done is > to make the expire time dependant whether the computer is in use or not, > like it's already done with the job progress I don't know what should be done. Probably if the notifications appear while the computer is idle (eg. screensaver is running), they should not disappear. If it in uses, I think half an hour is just too much, several minutes should be enough. I was annoyed with the old behavior when I saw a notification, but didn't have time to read it, but I don't think I'd be interested in notifications from half an hour ago. 5-10 minutes might work better. Of course, this is my opinion, in the (old) KDE spirit, I'd ask for a configurable timeout. ;) (Yes, a good default is better.)
