The notices are urgent notifications about the page, not about the user.
They're intended to always display, just like the editnotices they replace.

Theoretically we could have per-user nullification of these, but that'd be
messy. Another idea (perhaps?) is to not auto-display the
OMG-this-is-so-important-all-users-must-acknowledge nature of editnotices and
the like. However, this seems to fly against the underlying purpose of the
notices.

Marking as WONTFIX.
