Even though I concur with Neil, that is in a large screen the new position may not be very bad, but in a small screen it is worse, let me show my use case:
Actually, in a big screen I usually work with two windows opened side by side (one is latex and the other evince showing me the compiled latex file). In that disposition, I use all the horizontal area of the screen and in particular the middle-right area. I do believe that the corners are a better place for notify-osd. We tend to have the corners already used (by the panels), so we are used to leave that space empty or with elements that we are not always using (like the screen button). Finally, as Mark said. The cursor is more important than the mouse to determine activity. If the person is typing, please don't cover that area with a bubble. It will certainly drive me nuts.
