After further investigation, notifications to make it from apps in a
Libertine container to U8.  The problematic case is using notify-send
from within the container.

The way NotificationServer tries to figure out if notify-send is being
used is not compatible with using it in a container.  NotificationServer
uses a function called isCmdLine() which checks if a pid's path is the
notify-send path, but this does not work in an LXC due to namespacing.
It would probably be better to check if the notifications app_name is
"notify-send" instead.

I will probably open a new bug against unity-notifications to see about
changing the behavior for isCmdLine().  In the meantime, I'm closing
this bug Invalid.
