I support this change, it's a great next step on the design work I put into https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/**r/#/c/17605/<https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/17605/> and seems to be very clever in the way it handles multiple messages.
That said, it's a pretty big change to an area of code that Timo (Krinkle) has been working on a lot, and he's just left on vacation for a week, so I am hesitant to merge it without some more scrutiny. So, if you feel up to scrutinizing, please do. - Trevor On Mon, Aug 13, 2012 at 10:18 AM, Daniel Friesen <li...@nadir-seen-fire.com>wrote: > A little while ago Trevor Parscal changed our jsMessage setup to be a > floating auto-hiding notification bubble. > https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/**r/#/c/17605/<https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/17605/> > > The end implementation felt half-baked to me.
