This is what the Galago notification spec does. This is what is used by
libnotify and notify-osd. KDE uses a variant of this spec but it's not
too different (I was able to make KDE follow the Galago spec with a 3
line patches).

I hope that both parties eventually agree on a new unified spec, and Bo
Thorsten recently started pushing in this direction on the xdg mailing
list, but meanwhile a simple solution is to make the notification system
support both specs.
