Pardon my inexperience with launchpad, but if this bug has been marked
as "invalid", does that effectively close discussion?  I notice that the
status has not been changed to "wontfix", so is this still a valid bug.
If not, has another bug against usability regarding this issue been
created and can it be linked to from here?  That is, if this bug really
is "invalid", then have other bugs been created to address for example :

1.  Removing this system is impossible without breaking the ubuntu-desktop meta 
package (and others it would appear, like gnome-power-manager, and in my case, 
bizarrely the "Listen" media player, but not Rhythmbox for some reason).
2.  Wishlist for positioning
3.  Usability bugs against, for example, the length of time a notification 
stays on the screen (too short for my young sons to actually read them).  There 
just can't be a "sane default" for the length of time some text stays on the 
screen... people are too diverse.  And you can't argue that "it doesn't matter 
because it's not a big deal if you missed it", because in that case, why bother 
with putting them on the screen in the first place?

There are probably more, but I'm worried that serious issues surrounding
this system are being swept under the rug in the run up to beta.
