I think the idea presented here is great.

Although I may be interpretating it differently then intended.

Two facts:
* When users have a new talk page message, they see (orange) <div
class="usermessage"/> message. Once visited/read it dissapears
* When there's a new sitenotice, logged-in users can dismiss it after reading

My version of the presented en.wiki idea in this bug, in addition to the above
two facts:
* When a user registers there's a welcome-notice with information new users
should know (ie. "MediaWiki:Welcomecreation2"[1]). This is dismissable and
won't be shown anymore after dismissed[2].

[1] MediaWiki:Welcomecreation2 isn't an acceptable message-key though, it would
have to be something more descriptive and less temporary. Something like
"newuser-welcomenotice" or "userregisterednotice", or plain "Welcomenotice"
etc.
[2] I don't think the Dismissable-sitenotice-extension's javascript and the
core sitenotice script are usable for this, since that would mean sending the
welcome-notice html for everybody until the end of time, and hiding it via
JavaScript based on a cookie. Instead this should probably be the other way
around, based on a cookie, send it, otherwise don't (cookie could be send when
signing up. So when registration is succesfull, set cookie and redirect to
whereever. )
